LSA 20 Statement Speakers


I may purchase a pair of LSA 20 Statement Speakers......
Using my Pass Labs 250.8 Amp, their XP-12 Preamp and XP-17 phono stage
I’m spinning a VPI Classic Turntable with a MIMC Soundsmith cartridge, will these Speakers create a memorable musical experience for years to come?
Esthetically, including their size, they 
work for me and my space.  I actually 
love their appearance. From what I’ve found, their products are created with experienced and knowledgeable guidance. 
My first attempt at an Audiogon post,
I appreciate your input.

@mijostyn “The engineering is very basic. Even you could probably master it.”
I know Dan Wiggins was part of this design team. I made the acquaintance of him before he even launched Adire, and his low frequency drivers are exemplary. The engineering in this speaker is FAR from “basic”.

@mbennes Ive been close to pulling the trigger on these too. But for MY listening preferences and content, I am leaning to Maggies. While room is relatively small (12.5 x 22), up to 3.7’s can work well, and room is dedicated, so their somewhat imposing aesthetic is not a problem. My concern is missing the next (low) octave - happy enough or need to try to integrate a sub.

But I am considering a comparison home trial if I can get the same trial period for the Maggies..
Appreciate your input...thank you! Our son is expecting their second child. Following that and our visit I’m pulling the trigger. Leaning toward the LSA 20 Statement, but the new Elba 2 also looks promising.  Talked to Wally regarding a Statement purchase. 
My room size should work if I can 
place the back of the speakers
a couple of feet from the wall. 
From what Photographs tell me, they are Beautiful Speakers.

These speakers exceeded my expectations and I have no regrets. Coupling the LSA-20 Statement speakers with your Pass gear and VPI turntable will indeed give you musical pleasure for years to come.

My baselines for speakers include Vandersteen, Totem, Quad, Aerial, B&W, Dynaudio, and Wilson. I have owned B&W, ADS, and Vandersteen speakers, and the LSA-20 Statements give me everything I loved about these speakers, but they do it much better.

I recommend these to you without reservation. You can see my Audiogon Virtual System post at https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9586.

Happy listening!
The LSA 20 Statement Speakers 
remain my next audio purchase.
Your familiarity with a number of high end audiophile Speakers provides more incentive to make 
the purchase.  
Having just returned from a visit 
to North Carolina to hold our new 
granddaughter, we discovered the central air in our home needs replacement.  
For now my purchase will be delayed....but not for long. 

I noticed those platforms under your LSA 20 Statement’s. Are they a MapleShade product? My Pass equipment, Music Hall CD player and VPI turntable are positioned in 
MapleShade Turn Table stand...
three four inch solid maple shelves.  Extremely solid and very 
attractive.
Thank you again for your encouraging insight..
