Larger Fan Blades in top Vent

I looked thru this section and saw reports on the Fantastic fan which I know is great from others comments. I wonder if any of you have just replaced the 'fan blades' on their original fans that A/S supplies. The blades are only 6-1/2" diameter, yet the opening could easily take a 9" dia blade. This coupled with a SPDT switch and a resister could easliy make a two speed more efficient fan with only small modifications.

It would be much quieter on low and avoid the expense and time to replace with Fantastic ( which I may do later at some point).

Who has tried this?

Also I DID replace the bathroom vent fan blade. It had become brittle and lost couple fins making it off balance. New one is fine on the old motor.
