Yes, unbalanced spools will generally have a rougher shot, and also get worse efficiency. Things like the Luxe and Droid use a fixed LP...it's still lower pressure, it's just not adjustable. As to how they actually achieve lowering the pressure, absolutely no clue. Never torn into either one enough to say how, and while the Droid's characteristics in it's shot and efficiency does imply balanced spool, the Luxe implies unbalanced. However, I've been reading that the Luxe IS a LPR-less balanced valve. One of these days I'll have to get hold of one and really learn them to see what differentiates them from being just a $1600 talking Shocker.
