Re: Lowther DX45's on a Dali Grand?

Folks, everybody's point is well taken. I thought this was insanity from the start, but then again that's why I subscribe to the Asylum...

When I ask Louther UK which of their drivers would match my Dali (and did send them the specs), here's what they replied with:

"The best Lowther drive unit for your purpose would be the DX45. Lowthers are renowned for excellent mid-range."

Then I ask Lowther if I should replace both midrange drivers or just one w/their DX45's, and they said:

"Both would be the best option to ensure correct matching. However, a possible suggestion is to purchase just 2 pieces to start with and try one in each enclosure below the tweeter. Then try both in one enclosure and see which provides the best sound for you. Room acoustics and positioning also play a large part."

Hence the conundrum:

First I did ask Lowther because they know their products. Then I ask my fellow inmates because I value your opinion. Thus I'm at a crossroads.
I can either a) do nothing and enjoy the Dali's as I've been doing, or b) Get the Lowhters, let my ears judge the results and if it fails to please there is always ebay or the 'gon to get some of my $$ back.
