Why don't you just get them repaired, or at least assessed?
Unless you weren't happy with the old sound it's virtually always worth it to bring 'em back. -
I've been on the same search & tested a few at Superfi last weekend. (I own a pair of Dali sensor 1s but wanted to see if anything around that price range would be an upgrade). I tried the Monitor Audio Bronzes, Dali sensor 3s & B&W656 s2. Dali sensor 3s were the clear winner but be wary that they are quite large so might not suit a every room (aesthetically), I didn't really like the bronzes as they were a bit metallic sounding in comparison. Ended up realising my little zensor 1s are brill for the buck & investing in a cartridge upgrade would be the way to go.
To sum - I'd say try and listen to some Dali Zensors if you can vs the bronzes...
