Something else to know. Those stock feet cause your MMG's to loose some of their bass output. As the woofer panel pushes forward, it also tries to push the speaker backward. That's one advantage box speakers have over Maggies. Those six-sided boxes hold their woofers firmly in place and don't loose any of their dynamic "punch" due to enclosure movement. To get those panels to "sit still" either DIY or buy some rigid, well braced stands. Your MMG's may not play any lower, but they'll play what they play with a lot more authority.
