SF Grand Piano Home tweeter upgrade

Just wondering if anyone has upgraded the tweeter to something like the Vifa Dual Ring X25 variant? With the 2.5 way design and Xover at 3K..seems like it may be a decent replacement, and cheap enought to try a t~$35 ea...I am wondering about fitment/model tweeter or if an L pad was needed or any other tweeter as a better upgrade..any thoughts appreciated.

I own these speakers for 8 years but would be reluctant to try.
Coherence with the 2 mid bass/mid range drivers is more important in voicing a speaker in my mind.
If the tweeter seems splashy, better resistors (Duelund graphite) and better capacitors (Obbligato gold) in the cross over + clean source, amplifier and better cables will tame the tweeter and smooth it out. It will still be lively and will add air (a good thing and part of the speaker's sound) but will not hiss at you or emphasize sibilance.
My two cents.
More to discover
