Daedalus Audio speakers - Muse or Muse studio

Does anyone have some opinions about these speakers? Please, do not flame me, but me and my significant other decided we wanted to change my Harbeths out for the Daedalus Audio Muse speakers. At least, thats the thinking, we are looking to get a more full range speaker for around ~10k USD. New or used. But he's zeroed in on the Muse as it suits his (mine too) aesthetic requirements and it does seem to be a more well rounded speaker, with a bigger cabinet that will certainly go lower (we still want to supplement with subs) and quite possibly a more cohesive midrange.
Any thoughts?

I'd suggest speaking directly to Lou Hinckley about which of the 2 Muse options might better suit your listening tastes, room etc.; my personal experience dealing with Lou has been very favorable; he's approachable, patient, non-pushy, and is interested in you getting what works best for you. I have thoroughly enjoyed my Argos V2s. Best of luck whichever decision you make with Daedalus or otherwise

d2girls,

For what it may be worth , I'll add to Almarg's amp association with Daedalus, I have the Argos V2's , model below the Ulysses, I drive them with either Modwright LS100 pre & KWA100SE power amp combo, Line Magnetic 518IA integrated (845 tube based SET, 22 wpc Class A), or Finale Audio 7189 (2) integrated (22 wpc push pull) . I will also agree with Al's assessment on the sound

Saw your post on Audio Circle, Lou at times responds on ACircle posts. but you might want to go ahead though and directly email or call him about whether or not he has any Canadian customers that might be able to help you out. 

Different topic - don't know if you are a Maple Leafs fan or not, but if you are it should be an exciting year. I'll be rooting for them to win the Cup because my beloved NY Rangers are years away from having a shot at doing so.

d2girls,

Obviously it's your choice, but  inna's youtube assessment of the sound and quality of  Daedalus, as well as Modwright & Wywires  is way off  from the actual in room reality
