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 want to make clear that I don't think the Harbeths are not cohesive FAR from it. We were simply thinking that Daedalus could be another step up, since it is a 3 way. We're trying to find a pair of Daedalus speakers locally that someone might be kind to let us come and take a listen.

Three ways are tougher to design well as inna points out. However a single driver speaker is plagued with fundamental problems. You just can’t get a single diaphragm to produce 20 to 12KHz with anything approaching audiophile quality (flat frequency response, low distortion and high SPL/dynamics). Single drivers are ideal for radios or bass guitar cabinets - where a limited bandwidth is acceptable.
