DIY Speaker Kits, a good idea?

Looking at the high quality of drive units in DIY loudspeaker kits like from Madisound, GR Research, SEAS, etc., it easily looks like a sonic bargain.

However, the typical audiophile mantra is to demo for yourself to find what subjectively “resonates” with you.  Can’t do this with a kit.  But a kit could be a sonic jackpot for one on a tight budget.  Also seems fun to build.

What’s your opinion?

On the assumption that this thread addresses DIY speakers in general, and apologies if I am slightly off-subject:

Has anyone here dabbed in a DIY kit for Electrostatic Speakers? I am tempted to build one, but have never built any DIY speaker yet, conventional nor ESL. I'd like to hear of which ones were built and the building experience as well as the sound compared to commercial ELS speakers.
