system upgrade

I am currently using an LSA Statement amp, Marantz30n SACD player and LSA Sig20 speakers.I would like to upgrade my speakers. I have a budget of 3k-5k and will buy on AudiogoN.Can you please suggest those which you feel would give me better sound? I lost the speakers I had hooked up to my TV ( LSA 2.1's} and the amp {Audiolab M ONE } in a recent power surge here in Dallas.Of course, I could just replace those and am open to suggestions there as well. If I can upgrade the LSA Sig20's I will move those to the TV and find an amp to replace the Audiolab.

Yeah I pretty much knew he was pushing his products all this time. But he never cares to disclose that information for new members.

The LSA Statement is a woefully underrated integrated. It can drive just about anything with power and finesse. That being said, try to find speakers with +88db or higher. Acoustic Zen Adagio? Maybe Spatial Audio M3s if you can find them.

….LSA Sig20 speakers.I would like to upgrade my speakers. 

Normally, an easy upgrade path might be sticking with same brand and moving up their models as brand Sonics (house sound) are often consistent. But changing brands the Sonics character will change.  

Generally speaking, because speakers sound different it best to demo yourself to find Sonics that subjectively resonants with you.  Usually high-end audio stores and audio shows.

That said, I like these <5k Audiogon listings:

  • Tekton Design Moab
  • Qualio Audio IQ 
  • Diptyque Audio DP 107
  • Revel Performa F226Be

Those Qualios would be an awesome buy at 5k.

I wound up buying a new pair of Revel F228Be's. I paid 6k. Does anyone have experience with these ? If so,are they better when biwired?
