LSA 20 Statement Speakers

@mbennes   I was looking for a pair of speakers for my secondary system and considered the LSA 20's along with the Tekton Electron SE's.  This system did not allow me to get the speakers as far off the front wall as I would normally prefer.  Terry London was kind enough to speak to me.  He clearly was impressed with the the LSA's (why else would he buy them?!).  He is of course an authority on Tekton as well.  After careful thought he did think that The LSA's might sound compromised in the quality of it's bass response with the rear of the cabinet and all those PR only 18" off the wall.  So I went the the Electron SE's and am very happy with my choice.  Not trying to steer you in a different direction--just giving some info on placement of the LSA's.  

I very much respect Terry London's opinion and given he actually bought them, they have to be an exceptional speaker. Not "just another dynamic floorstander".  And I have to believe they would be a clear upgrade from your current speaker.

The RS6 is a good speaker, neutral and revealing, so your other equipment and cables will determine what comes out of them. You can match a new set of speakers to your other gear or maybe replace your speaker cables with with something that will match better. I never heard LSA 20s, so I don't know much about them.

Thanks to all of you for your contributions....
At this time I remain undecided.
I can listen to a pair of B&W 702’s. Feel the need to actually listen to what an upgrade will sound like. 
Those LSA 20 Statement Speakers 
remain a possibility.....

Electrostatic Speakers will dominate the room...looked at the suggested Magnepan’s earlier and due to size they will not be an option. But “Thank you” for your suggestion.  

I owned LSA 10 Statements a number of years ago

The newer Underwood LSA speakers haven’t been out that long.  Maybe you’re thinking of the older LSA1?

They are just another dynamic floor stander. Nothing special. If you want special get Sound Labs 545's. If you can't afford those get Magnepan 3.7i's

That’s just uninformed ignorance from someone who has no idea who’s behind the development of these LSA speakers, and the Maggies are twice the price so another useless recommendation. 

@mbennes — given what you’re looking for I think you’ll be thrilled with the LSA-20 Statements or even the Signatures.  They should be significant improvements over your RS6es in virtually every parameter.  I’ve spoken with several people here who’ve bought them and every one of them has been shocked with how good they sound, and member Teajay bought the 20 Statements after reviewing them for Stereo Times.  As a reviewer myself I can tell you we don’t buy review samples unless we’re seriously impressed — it’s the ultimate recommendation.  Anyway, best of luck and do keep us posted on whatever you decide.

Thank you.
Input, good or bad is what I was looking for.

There is a member or two that have them. I know I have seen a couple in the virtual systems page. Browse that section and pm them. 

never saw or heard them,

my only reservation, I'm no fan of rear ports, so consider how those ports will work in your space, discuss it with underwood prior to purchase

direct from underwood correct? great price, 30 day trial, if not tempted by something else, try them!

The RS6’s sound is clean but at times their high end can be sharp.
Would enjoy more deep bass as well. I can audition the LSA 20’s
and return them with a $ loss. But it’s such a hassle....
The sound I’m looking for is “more”, if that make any sense.

I do not wish to sound negative about LSA speakers, but I recommend not purchasing them. I owned LSA 10 Statements a  number of years ago and while they sounded good I later decided to purchase a pair of Harbeth P3esrs. The Harbeths were far better speakers. I do not have any experience with the LSA-20s, but I recall telling myself to never buy LSA speakers again. I would look elsewhere; with the other equipment you have, the LSAs may not be to their standard. 

I realize the professional reviews on these speakers are superlative, but so were the LSA-10s. After I had the speakers for a while I did agree with the reviews.  

What sound characteristics are most important to you, and what improvements would you like to achieve over your RS6es?

I should add..
Speakers I have been listening to
are Monitor Audio Silver RS6.
I purchased in these in 2006.

Thanks..
Never listened to LSA 20 Statement’s before. Seeking insight from someone familiar with their sound...good or bad.
 Price is in my budget and again, to me they are extremely pleasing to look at. We’ll see if there are any 
LSA listeners... 

You have some terrific equipment there, it should bring you many hours of memorable music pleasure.
I learned long ago not to care what others thought it's  your ears that need to be pleased.
Enjoy!
