First, welcome to the forum!
Based on the thought that you are interested in a Power Meter, I would guess training and racing is part of your desire, so I would suggest asking in the Road Racing and/or Triathlon forums for a more targeted response. The Road Racing forum is a subforum of the Road Cycling forum, in case you haven't found it yet.
But, if not, and you are simply interested in power training for personal fitness, the bottom line, is what (if anything) do you find lacking with your current wheels?
An open ended question is fine, but a little bit about what your objectives or expectations are would get you more reasonable responses.
For wheels, do you want racing or training wheels? Are you a climbing specialist or a sprinter? How much do you weigh, and what type of riding do you do? I have no opinions on wheels, but these are the sort of questions I have seen asked when people are seeking opinions on wheels.

Don't run red lights, wear a helmet, use hand signals, get some cycle lights(front and rear) and, FFS, don't run red lights!
