RE: Magnepan 3.6R dead midranges

Can you give me any more specifics? If I were to disconnect the XO (which hasn't been removed since I bought them and requires that infernal tiny hex tool) what would I measure? Isn't the external XO split bass from high/mid so the external connections are for high & mid what XO being internal? My tweeters work.

I have a cheap voltmeter/ohmmeter I use for testing batteries.

I'm concerned the drivers served as fuses---but it's hard for me to imagine some sort of spike that would blow out both midranges, including their fuses, and not hit the ribbon drivers and their lower current fuses. And the 3.6 has regular wire midranges, should be pretty robust, right?

I'm stumped to the problem and how it would happen on both channels.

I have never bypassed fuses and use 3AG fast blow fuses in recommended spec only.
