Indeed. One substantial difference, if the drivers are upgraded they will almost certainly be different response and therefore require at least some crossover changes. If the upgraded driver is a known commodity, like adding a Be tweeter to Moab f...

Two defective pieces in a row - unreasonable to demand refund?
Glad you got a good one in the end. But, three McIntosh amps to find a good one?  https://youtu.be/1fybwCGjNUc?t=41
