Emil,
I unplugged the push pin wires to the 4 tabs under the sock, and plugged in my replacement wiring to my upgraded crossover. Got too lazy to build a box and officially solder in everything. I had the wires twisted into the cap leads and also onto the inductors. From there I simply "alligator clipped" the bare speaker wire to the crossover wire ends. Was not pretty, nor sturdy. Oh, and I laid the crossover on some bubble rap on a flat board behind the speaker. Much better sound.
I have the MG.6's, which is basically an older MG12. I have a pair of MGIIIa's that I did not modify, and could not really get to shine like I could with the .6's. Don't know why, maybe I like the QR over the true ribbon.
