I looked into the GR Research kits a while back. I was really interested in their OB5 for a while.
The kits are completely inclusive and apparently pretty easy to assemble (crossover).
You have to build the cabinets, though, which I can attest is both frustrating and fun. The finished products get good reviews and the owner there has designed crossovers for AV123 production speakers, so he knows what he's doing.
I ended up trying my own DIY route from scratch (which is still in the test a theory, build something else, test another theory phase). But for a first major project, a full kit is not a bad thing. My first DIY speakers were an Adire Audio kit (RIP).
Good luck.
