I'd go with the Profis, and don't criticize their hard domes without hearing them. Rainbow's are very "silk like" in that they're laid back, and smooth. Not the typical harsh tweeter when you think of metal domes.. just like not all silks are all that smooth, depending more on the individual driver design, dispersion, travel, coil diameter, etc.. than just the material alone. I think you'd like the profis, but I have no qualms with DLS either. Both are good companies, with good products.
I personally went with DynAudio for my three-ways because I got them at a much more affordable price than an equally performing set of Rainbows a few years ago.
My only issue with Rainbow is their seeming inability to find, hold, and keep a US distributor, and their general lack of availability.
