LSA1's - Anyone familar with them?


I am considering a pair of LSA1 bookshelf speakers. I read 1 review of them from a number of years ago on StereoMojo that essentially raved about them.

The LSA1's sold for $1000 at the time of the reiview and went up to $1200/pair later. The company has changed hands and the LSA1's are now being sold for $600. Considering how well they are made and how good they are supposed to sound this could be a great deal.

My budget dictates a speaker in the $500-$700 range and I was going to purchase the Elac UB5's, but now that the LSA1's are similarly priced ($500 vs $600), I am undecided.

Has anyone heard or owned the LSA1's, and if so what are your impressions?

Also, has anyone heard both the LSA1's and the UB5's and which do you like better and why?

Thank you for any responses

I can't attest to the LSA1 speakers, but I can say my LSA Statement integrated will be my amp for a long, long time. It's one of the most musical and enveloping amps I've ever had - and that includes Rogue, ARC, YBA, Sophia, Rega, and Blue Circle.

Thank you to Larry and to John Tucker for designing such an underrated gem.
