String gauge depends on how the top was braced and voiced. If I braced and voiced a top for light strings it would implode if someone put heavy strings on it and inversely if I braced and voiced for heavy gauge strings it would sound pretty anemic if you put lights on it.
I have used DR hand made strings for years and use their Rare models exclusively. I used D'Dario's for a brief time while DR was having some QC issues with their string packaging supplier.
