I would only move up and move on w/ a Verity Audio loudspeaker at a much higher price.

Actually, it can affect the sound of period-music, via, cross-over networks.It all begins w/ the 1st order cross-over. If one likes this "sound" then seek out Vandersteen or Thiel (my reference). Progress w/ 2nd order up to 4th Order for best effect. 
What are the best speakers for 80's hard rock?
OP-for a more vintage sound- seek out Infinity Crescendo (CS) series.A more modern loudspeaker- Thiel CS 2.4 
Is it worth upgrading my power conditioner to Shunyata?
OP-the V-Ray model from Shunyata is the best buy. As always, buy used/demo for best effect.
