Crankset upgrade question

Right now i have a 52-42-30 triple Ultegra crankset on my Trek 2006 2200 and am planning to swap it out for a compact. probably a 50/34. i test road a bike at the store today with that setup and felt smoother than what i have. i enjoyed it. chatted up the guy about what i'm going to do and what he'd recommend. i don't want to upgrade my whole group setting either. he mentioned i can do an Ultegra 6750 or the upper one and only change out the chain, rear and front derailleurs and the cage.
I'm not sure if my bike is a 10 speed or not. i'm guessing it is but not sure. Would the Ultegra compact 50/34 be a good move? and what would be the ideal derailleurs for the new setup? my cassette is unknown to me on what it is. what type of cassette be good too? a 12-27? and what brands should i look for?
I have all ultegra minus the front der. which is a 105.
