Default Improving loudspeaker crossovers (SBL's)

Over the last few weeks I've kinda got a speaker bug as I've been thinking
about 5.1 systems.
I came across a few sites regarding improvements to SBL/SL2/DBL/IBL range of
crossovers as they are all more or less identical.

As it now looks that I may be using my SBL's to part accomadate home theatre
along with my standard Hi-Fi, I've been chewing on the claims made of
improved sound performance through substituting better components within the
crossover.

I'd like to know on a cost basis if this really is a useful step upwards for
the speakers (rather than spending money elsewhere) & pick peoples brains of
useful tips on the subject.
If anyone has had direct experience to I'm all ears


The components in any decent crossover are probably perfectly up to the
requirements for the job. What kind of substitution did you have in mind and
what improvements were you anticipating ?
