That is where most of the Magnepan discussion takes place.
in general terms, the socks are called that because they are tubes of fabric that stretch over the speakers. You would have to find another way to keep the one side in tension if you remove the other side.
The panels provide support for the drivers. Making them narrower will reduce this support and degrade the sound. A better approach would be to make some nice frames with sufficient rigidity to replace the MDF panels. There is a lot of discussion on this topic at the Planar Asylum.
