Hi and thanks for the very interesting and telling story/experience.
So when mods are done smartly they can really elevate remarkably the performance of a unit, whit a decent one becoming good and a good one becomining very good indeed.
This is what i will try to do in the future, when i stop moving for my job.
Building from the scratch is too challenging for me.
I have a big admiration for people able to do that.
Sometimes the results are truly amazing.
I think that even vintage units can be a good basis for mods.
Thanks a lot again.
Kind regards,

I suspect that a major part of the "mod" was really using better (more expensive) parts that had been "value-engineered" out to make the stock unit to meet certain price point. I did google those capacitors he put into my linestages and they are not cheap.

Hi and thanks a lot again for the valuable advice
I believe completely in the benefits from using better parts
A friend of mine has a pair of BBC ls3/5a speakers
He built new xovers using same values but very top quality parts ...
He had to place the new xovers out of the cabinets because they were huge and did not fit inside.
the difference in sound with the original ( he modded one speaker at a time to compare) was very impressive indeed.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
