To REWIRE or LET BE: a speakers question


After asking around & getting conflicting advice, here I am again soliciting you, a-goners who have given me the BEST advice to-date to all my quests.
Should I change the internal wiring of my Gen Vs or will this upset the speakers sound balance / tuning?
The local dealer was all for it("sure, I'LL do it for you, have the right cables, too..."), the manufacturer hasn't answered (yet?), people around me say: forget it, you'll blow the tuning.

Apart from the sonic "danger", each speaker has 8 units, so the investment in wire & labour is considerable...

Has anyone tried this, or have an opinion? Thanks in advance!

I know someone who did it to his own speakers. He used to work in the industry. I think they were a basic two-way design, so it took not a lot of work. He said it was a night and day difference. The speakers became ultra transparent. I don't see how it could affect the timing or tuning so long as you used the same length and gauge wiring as before, just a better quality. I don't know if I could recommend it because I wouldn't do it to my own speakers, but I do believe if properly done it would sound better. Let us know what happens--and save your old wiring just in case.
