Ohm I speaker upgrade??

I own a beautiful pair of OHM I speakers. Bought new back in 1979, I think it was. Anyway, I am considering replacing the drivers with the new upgrades available from OHM speaker. Has anyone done this to theirs? Or heard a pair that was upgraded? I own several pair of Klipsch speakers and are very happy with them. These speakers are 4 ohm and not as efficient as any of my Klipsch speakers. My latest idea is to replace the subwoofers and use them as my subwoofers in my home theater. I would split the signal from my receiver to an old DH-500 and then to the subwoofer in these speakers.
The speaker cabinets are in beautiful shape and don't want to just put them in the garage.

Any thoughts or suggestions sure be appreaciate.
Thanks to all the reply in advance.

I appreciate all this information. I want to thank you all very much!
When I read unsound's reply. I searched the archives and came up with nothing, so I wrote him.

I am thinking of replacing all the drivers, so will cost me just over a grand. Just trying to get a few opinions before I do. I am used to listening to the very efficient Klipsch speakers I own, so haven't played these speakers in about 10 years. I love the sound, just wish they were a bit more efficient.
