Upgrades for Thiel CS 3.6?


I have a pair of Thiel CS 3.6 that I’ve owned for about 12 years. I think they’re fantastic. 
Just curious... have there been driver advancements that I might benefit from? 
Has anyone tried swapping out drivers and if so, were you pleased with the results?

One of Thiel’s better speakers. A lot of thought and care went into that crossover to make those particular drivers work very well together. Change one of them,  even if it is more "advanced" and it will probably turn into a Sh!t show.
There is a drop-in replacement soft dome tweeter diaphragm available for the 3.6 tweeter.. The 2 user reviews are very positive. One reported an improvement after it broke in.

Scanspeak dome assembly D3004. (the 3.6 uses a Vifa D26AG36-04 Tweeter but its a drop-in replacement coil/diaphragm with no mods needed)

That said I still wouldn't mess with them,  as stated in the post above Rob at Coherent Source might have a proper mod.
