Advice on speaker wiring close to IB drivers-move, re-route, or "ok"?


Hi;
need some advice here please.
I'm building a 4 x 15" line array and my build thread is in the IB cult forum, but this being Saturday/weekend not sure if Thomas will check/reply in his forum, and I'm in building mode right now. I never double post in different forums, and I know Thomas sometimes checks other forums, but I'm kinda desperate for advice.

Below is same as my IB cult thread post as of 10 minutes ago.

Here is my question/request for advice:
I routed the RH/LH/Ctr speaker wire in Dec-07 before I committed to this IB project, see those wires?
The hanging ones have slack and I can route them "away", however the one bundle will be between 2 drivers, are there any "issues" with my mains RH/LH/Ctr sound being "compromised" / distorted/whatever by being this close to those magnets/coil/etc?? How "much" distance should the wires be from the magnet/voice coil?
I'd rather not cut/splice them, but if I have to based on your advice I will.


By the way, here is a shot from HT side in progress as of this morning:
