ATC Speaker Upgrades - Amp & Gloss Black Finish


For a long time I have been contemplating buying a used pair of ATC 100/150 speakers. I have two questions about upgrades:

1. Who has purchased a passive pair of ATC 100/150 and upgraded them to the active version (using the ATC amplifier module(s)? Is this easy to do and what is the approximate cost?

2. Has anyone had experience converting an ordinary wood veneer speaker finish to piano gloss back? If you have, how was it done (Auto body shop?) and what were the results like?

Agree with Shadorne. You may wish to look at the pro line ATC 16s and 40s. I own 150s in a pro studio environment and they are "overkill" for most consumers.
