That can get quite expensive. There are 10 speakers individually controlled.
You'd either need a 10 channel full DSP amp or 2 5 channel full DSP amps if you want something similar to the existing system
I think especially with the amps a lot of quality gains can be made, TBH I think the speakes are quite good.
Especially to get a woofer into the small carver enclosures that is suited to that space (in regard to Thiele-Small parameters) is quite difficult. That requires some extensive modelling.
