I should also say that once you start seriously looking for kits to build check out the Parts Express or diyaudio discussion forums. Both filled with helpful people with first hand experience building.

Crossover and Wiring Upgrade
Has anyone upgraded their Sonus Faber crossover, internal wiring, and binding post? I'm a cable and amplifier believer as not all cables and amps sound the same. Using that same mindset, I believe that upgrading the crossover and internal wiring would also yield positive results and keep in my speakers longer versus upgrading.

Hi OP. I think the differences could be minor... but if you are hankering for tweaks my suggestion is go build a kit first and the do your own experimentation with everything from wiring to caps. The biggest issue I see with your approach is that if you suffer from chronic creative dissatisfaction you are never going to want to stop, or by the time you do what you are really after is an entirely new set of speakers but your originals are now so different you can't sell them. Check Madisound, Meniscus and Parts Express for excellent kits to serve as a starting point for your next adventure.
