The cabel.com article linked to in many comments has the copy that explains it. [1]

One of the DAK signatures was buying other company's production line "mistakes", "fixing" them, and selling the result.

In this case, the original Thunder Lizard was another firm's speaker[2]. The mistake was that it assembled with the wrong (inferior) tweeter. DAK bought the mistakes, the correct tweeter, and sold them.

The Plus, iirc, was a follow up to this speaker.

[2] Some model of BSR DR1550 series speaker, if web searches are correct.

Edited to add BSR info.
