ATC or Audio Note (2-way)

Anyone have experience with both brands?

I only buy gear I can upgrade and tinker with and I stick with 2-way loudspeakers..

AN seems easier to DIY. so I would definitely want to see how the ATC responds to component upgrades. Are they capable of much higher resolution?

thanks in advance
