I would not expect a huge difference going from round wire to a flat one. In your case it would be a step in the "better" direction as the foil you already have is too massive.
What will you do with the bass wiring? I dislike the combined bass-mid concept. The separate bass, mid and tweeters that you find in the larger models are more to my liking. The Tympani ID bass drivers are probably better than the bass of the IIIa and matches the mid of the IIIa better. The IIIa basses are double mass the ID basses. Maybe you can have Magnepan build separate midrange drivers? It would be possible to do that if you can sacrifice your IIIa basses. Magnepan will probably not do that...
