DAW vs Alexia 1 vs Sasha 2, descending order of $$

Having recently heard the DAW, and Alexia 2, they are very close in performance the $$ suggest the DAW is a great value. I have Sophia 1 Wilson offers a generous trade in program, that said its still a lot of money, so my thinking has been to just get the DAW (my heart, my head says get the Alexia 1 CPO or Sasha 2 CPO) Not being independently wealthy, getting Either the Alexia 1 or Sasha 2 seem like sound choices, and trade up again later a couple years from now. My question is would you spend 10k more to get the DAW and stretch a little to make it happen or buy the lesser siblings and trade up in a few years?

Compared to my Sohpie 1s.

What would you do with the given choices.

@adsell What did you end up doing?  I'm in a very similar boat.  I'm actually trying to decide which upgrade for Sophia 2 - Sasha 1 or Sasha 2, or maybe wait for Alexia.  
Sasha 1 = 13k
Sasha 2 = 18k
Alexia 1  = ?? maybe 22k. 
Did you pull the trigger, and what are your thoughts?  

My room is 14x21 with 10' ceilings.  I use ARC ref 3 and Ref 75 (w KT 150s) for power.  
Anyone have additional thoughts. 

Is the Sahsa 2 basically the Alexia one with less scale, bass/impact, but very similar voice, etc?

Is Sahsa 2 closer to Sasha 1 or Alexia 1 in voice, transparency, stage? 
Thanks!
