Had Three Different Speaker Thoughts; Now A Fourth

The fourth option a friend mentioned and it has appeal is this... I also own a pair of Polk RTiA7 towers. They are a really nice cabinet with a nice build that house a 6.5 and two 7 inch drivers and a tweeter. He said I should think about replacing the drivers with Scan Speaks and upgrading the crossovers.

I justt completed a new xover for my 15+ yr old Seas Thors,
MTM,
Had Hovland caps,
Went with a a;; Mundorf. High end
I found some gains in the Millennium tweeter (has 4 caps, = cost me a bundle) and for the dual W18E001’s, made some mod to the cap, went from the original 8.2uf Hovland>> to a Mundorf Silver Oil 8.2($150ish?/) and a Mundorf SESGO 2.2($100 each!!) The W18’s now have rock solid punchy bass.
The higher end Scanspeak 7 inches are super woofers, but quite the price.
So on the 7’s you havea choice
The Seas Graphene $500 each
Of
Scanspeaks many options, some go as high as $800 EACH!!!
Both labs offer incredible new midwoofer designs,
The Seas Graph has a titanium voice coil, which IMHO is the best bet for upper mids to say 1500hz.
For the tweeter section, I have no suggestions.

I currently have B&W 606 S2 bookshelves and I am thinking about doing something different, I haven't been overwhelmed by their build or performance.

Possibly the most over hyped speaker ever, 
Bose being #1 snakeoil-ed. 
B&W a  close 2nd place.
Is that company still in business? 
Hard to imagine those things  continue to sell.
The used market is flooded with B&W's. 

LMAO.
