Does anyone have Magnepan MMG measurements?

Ideally individual driver measurements, but complete speaker measurements would be interesting too. I've had an idea for some time now, take my 12" dipole woofers, put them in a small H-enclosure 'box', put the MMG's on top. Since I already have a DCX2496 and 6 channels of amplification, I could do a full active XO, or leave the MMG's XO in place, and just do a 200-300Hz-ish XO between the MMG and the woofer.

I've found lots of threads on MMG XO upgrades, but so far, I've been completely unsuccessful in finding any measurements.

There's a guy over at the planar asylum who has done a lot of measurements of his MMGs.

If you can go active line level with the crossover, you should do so.

Thanks. I've tried searching there, but didn't find any posted data. But I'll take a closer look, and maybe post a question there as well.
