GR Research Upgrades


Has anyone here had their speakers upgraded at GR and if so, did you hear any significant sonic improvement afterwards?

I was considering sending in a KEF R 11 for them to take a look at and see what recommendations they may offer.

Just the thought of the shipping a speaker to them sends shivers down my spine as I have had one speaker severely damaged during a cross country trek in the past.   

After their analysis, the speaker is then shipped back with all the new part and you do all the modifications yourself, (to both speakers).

Is it worth the risk?

I haven't purchased anything nor had any GR upgrades, but what he says makes good sense. Although, I'll admit that I'm not quite sold on the tube connectors.
I do like those Rythmik Audio/GR OB servo-controlled subs, seems like a great application of technology and something I'd be more interested in if they weren't so expensive (per pair). Being the value-conscience hobbyist that I am - instead of spending (think it was going to be $5k plus build and finish), I built a stereo pair of Linkwitz Labs Phoenix OB subs (alt version with Tymphany/Peerless drivers) for $700. Super happy with them. I have had online discussions with Danny, and he turned me on to some great DACs a couple years ago - think it was the Holo May Kitsune edition. Danny seems to be a knowledgeable good guy from my experience.
