Many Times...

But, a few caveats are in order.

Best specs do not mean best sound.

Also, larger is not necessarily better.

Break-in time is essential. My double C-Core Partridges required many dozens of hours of music passing thru before I decided that the smaller E-I core devices sounded more natural in my units with my ears. They didn't look as cool as the top of the line Partridges; but they sure made listeners smile...

Due to the sometimes insane costs involved, you might try to find nearby experimenters who have already tried or are also thinking of trying similar experiments. Friendly audio folk are few and far between,(considering we are less than 1% of the normal population) but could be worth the trip...
