"I love the way they sound with my system which is parasound. Well I looked at the crossovers and they are preaty cheep,... I like the sound of the speakers though.."Why do you want to change the sound if you love it already? Seems counter intuitive to me.
But if you want to see where the resolution limits are on the LS-12's then Solen would be a good choice for the caps as would the Mills resistors. Solen also sells some Non-inductive low noise metal oxide resistors which would net you small gains depending on where they are implemented in the x-over circuit.
I would not change/mess with the inductors are these are not just a "swap 'em out" part. You have to take into consideration the DCR of the inductor as well as the driver parameters to get an exact match. I highly doubt you could get that data from Cerwin-Vega.
If the x-over is built on a PCB, consider chucking that and rebuild it using point to point wiring and mount it external to the speaker. Or if that is not possible, build the x-over on a 3/4" piece of MDF and mount it internally but on rubber bushings.
By the way...the link does not work.
Hope this helps,
