LSA110 Statement as possible replacment for Silverline SR17.5?

Toying with the idea of upgrading my Silverline monitors. The new, Supreme version cost $7500 and I'd rather spend less. Anyone familiar with the LSA110 Statements ?  Just how good are they?  How bright/Neutral/Warm ?
Any other suggestions under 4K ?

Rest of my system:
Wells Audio Majestic integrated
Moon 260D transport
Aqua La Voce DAC
Acoustic Zen IC
AudioArt speaker and digital cables

Well, if you have a 30 day trial period, you can keep the Silverlines and not risk anything. Why not give it a try?

Yes, roxy54; I'm leaning in that direction. The only difference between the Signature and Statment models is the tweeter. The Statement has a beryllium tweeter while the Signature has a soft dome. I've read that  berylliums are not fatiguing but would rather play it safe and go with the soft-dome.

roxy54; for the sake of accuracy, I should point out that there's a 10% restocking fee + shipping, if speakers are returned.

You may be in luck. There’s a nice pair of Joseph Audio Pulsars (the speakers the LSAs benchmarked) here for $3500. If they don’t blow you away you can probably sell them for what you paid, and if you like them you can upgrade them to Graphene version and get even more improvement if you get the urge. I’d hop on them ASAP. Best of luck.
