Silverline SR17.5 crossover modifications?

Does anyone have experience with crossover modifications for the Silverline SR17.5 monitors? I'm considering changing to higher quality parts and would like your input: Dueland resistors, Mundorf silver-in-oil caps, Alpha core inductors, and silver wire. Or should I just leave them alone? I don't want to change the overall sonic character of the speakers, just improve what's already there.

Reynolds853,
So how did the Duelund caps work out in your Silverline speakers?

Sherod,

They worked great. It doesn't take much listening to them to understand what Tony Gee meant when he described them as having near perfect tonal balance. Compared to the s/g/o caps, the VSF is also faster and more richly textured. The sound through them is as clear as a bell. Obviously, I recommend them very highly for the SR17.5.

Are you considering Duelund for a project, and if so, what speakers?

I currently have the Duelund VSF in the cross-over of my Reference 3a Dulcet. They are as you say, very clean, fast and richly-textured.
