Heresy II upgrades?

I just bought a pair of Klipsch Heresy II's for a temporary system while I am working out of town. I am going to match them with a Cary SLI-80 F1 Signature integrated amp, and some classic turntable and maybe the Eastern Electric(or my fav the MHDT Havana)DAC.

Anyway, when I build a new house in this new city, the Cary interated system will be a secondary system that I will match with Klipschorns in a family/great room.

Sorry so long winded. Now to the question:

Is upgrading the Heresy's to either the Klipsch Heresy III's (approx $550 for the kit from Klipsch), or Crites specs (Approx $400, but sounds like a better upgrade) worth the money? They sound good now, and I plan on selling them in about 7 or 8 months. But I love to tweak stuff. Is it worth it for either of these upgrades?

Remember, someone on here will get the benefit of the upgrades when I sell them later this year, at a discount from my total cost, so let me know.

Don't mess around with the heresy's too much, Bob Crites is easy to get on the phone and talk with I think he would tell you to replace the caps in the crossovers and for sure the tweeter upgrade both are affordable options. I've owned both one's and two's and the two's are better. Good luck with the project you just might wind up keeping those speakers.
