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?

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

Well I'm not leaning away from Deadalus because of inna, far from it. I just cant justify spending 8k usd on a speaker I haven't heard or cant hear. 10k usd in the case of the muse studio.

@d2girlsHere's a conundrum faced by many of us--having to make a trip of 100s of miles to hear the makes that we're most interested in.

On the face of it, if you quite like the Harbeth, I don't see how the JBL is going to do it for you.

Let's attack this from a different direction.

What makes/models ARE available to you to audition within a reasonable radius from where you live?

Hello , I just read this post. I am the owner of the first ever MUSE produced by LOU.

Here are my 2 cents :

1-Since I live in Mexico, hearing them was not an option either,  I mate them first with a Shindo tube Integrated AMP.

Yes they do take a long to break in. 

The Shindo 12 watts was not good enough for the Muse even as efficient as they are.

2-I mate them now with a Pass Labs INT-30, 30w x 2 Class A

the sound is much much better with this SS amp that is more powerful too.

3-I have had many speakers, all less than 10K, my previous ones where Acoustic Zen Addagios, and these are much more superior.

If you have a big room,, may be you should consider a Bigger speaker or definitely  a SUB. since Bass is not the strong asset of the Muse-
