Has anyone had Danny upgrade a pair of Klipsch KG-5.2?

Be interested in your thoughts?

Thanks

I had a pair of KG 4.2 a while back.  Out of curiosity I opened them up and the first thing I noticed was zero "0" bracing unless you count the 1/4 round rods that were used along the edges.  I would be interested to see if anyone did send those in as well.

I don't believe anyone has sent one in yet.

But no surprise on the lack of bracing, the Forte III are the same way and that's probably the first things I would recommend doing to them.
Here's how Tyson and Danny braced the Forte III:

I believe the Cornwall III and IV do have some bracing between the mid horn and woofer, but it's still quite minimal.
