Having said that, let me say what I know I'll miss from the Raidho in comparison to the Alexia. It's that Raidho ribbon delicacy which it's known for on certain types of music. What I won't miss is the Raidho having trouble with bass heavy notes -- that is a slight deficiency and not meaning to degrade the Raidhos at all. I love 'em & if I could afford the $70K diamond coated D3.1's, which addresses the bass issue, game over. Happy camper. 
Now, what will I gain with the Alexia? A slightly easier speaker to push with the MC2301's and boatload of dynamics would be my first thoughts. Kick down bass with extremely clean sound with no break-up is the second expectation. 
I believe I have made a good decision w/no regrets as I wait the delivery truck. :thu mbsup:
