I haven't checked out Lou's speakers in a couple years, but he would be the first to admit that razor sharp imaging isn't their thing. That said, you do tend to get a hugely wide sweet spot where the sound is very full and balanced at "both ends of the couch". The speakers are made of solid hardwood as well, so they are in the camp of "resonant" speakers, like Audio Notes, and others, and some people like that and others don't. I do believe that Lou did make some changes to one or more of his original models and offered them with a single tweeter instead of the pair of offset ones, which did improve the imaging a bit, but they are still what I would consider fairly laid back and warm speakers -- though I'm looking forward to hearing the new one this year. IMO, they also work much better with a very transparent tube amp, and as nice as the Red Dragons are, they are still digital amps and really just not the best match, again IMO, for the Daedalus speakers. I think he used them last year because he needed a lot of power because he also used his speakers for PA duties for the evening entertainment.
Years ago, Lou built me a custom guitar amp -- his C-81 model that had a 4U rack space above the speaker cabinet which held a Pendulum SPS-01 preamp, a Lexicon effects box, and an original Stewart PA-200 amp, and was the only one he ever made of Ash wood. It killed me to have to sell that amp (but not as much as selling the Martin and John Reuter custom that went with it.)
I think Lou would agree that he voices his speakers to sound "natural", like acoustic instruments, but then again, most of them you can push to 120+ dB.
