Is it taboo to mod a speaker?


I often read and hear about modifications done to source equipment, amplifiers, DACS, and ocassionally I read about someone doing stuff to the crossover portion of a loudspeaker. I myself plan to have someone modify my Pioneer DVD in a few months. However, I rarely read about anyone modding a loudspeaker by exchanging drivers. I have never heard of anyone exchange or upgrading to driver ABC from drive XYZ. Is it done? Does anyone do this professionally?

Upgrading the caps in the tweeter's filter will greatly help some speakers. Some folks think this is the most important passive component in the entire system. Change with a like value.

You can go to forums like the Madisound and it is likely that someone has experience with your speaker or one like it.

I remain,
