upgrading Apogee Duetta speakers


I recently aquired a pair of original Duettas that sound wonderful, but like all audiophiles, I am looking to upgrade them to the Duetta Signature level, or at least close. Does anyone know what crossover the Signature used and where can I purchase those items?

I did this journey with Duetta sigs and Divas. They sounded epic when completed. You have a lot to play with.

I would get the ribbons replaced with Graz new ones which are far superior to the originals. Tighter more dynamic, refined and take more power.

The crossover components can be easily replaced with better. Unfortunately it is a large crossover so this may dictate how crazy you go with nice caps and inductors.

The mundorf silver/gold in oil or silver in oils are very nice caps. If that kills you financially try a mix of large cheaper caps made up with or bypassing with the best you can do. Unfortunately duelund caps will be like buying a car. But their sound is almost worth it!

I used alphacore foil inductors. These were very nice. All these mods make the crossover point much more seamless and give much better detail and remove grain. Sound staging improves by miles and bass is cleaner.

Good luck. Feel free to contact me.
