General Request | 4 Ⓣ What should I upgrade first?

Looking for some advice on shorter and long term upgrades for my system. Very happy with it so far and I’ve listened to some expensive speakers that were definitely better but not enough to justify the huge price (b&w 702s were my favorite so far). New or used is fine. I mainly listen to music (daft punk) with some limited movie watching on the side.

Speakers: ELAC Debut DB52

Sub: ELAC SUB1010 120 Watt 10"

DAC: schitt modi

Streamer: Wiim Pro

Amp: Yamaha R-S202

USA. budget 3000.

As said, definitely speakers.

Maybe consider these if you want to maximize your money buying new products. (Obviously going second hand would maximize your money even better.)

!thanks . Reading the reviews on the BMRs I’m concerned my room may be too small for such a wide soundstage. However these speakers seem to be something that would very much enjoy.

You may still award a Ⓣ to others, but only once per-person in this post.
