Comparable 12.0" Drivers
Drivers with similar piston area, resonance and Qts — useful alternatives when the Eminence EMILEG125_2PK does not fit your target box volume or tuning. Each entry links to its full enclosure design and Thiele/Small parameters.
⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders
- Straight vent would be 760.7 cm long: not physically buildable as a simple tube. Use a passive radiator, a folded slot port or model a 3D folded duct in Load Forge Studio.

SUITS INFINITE / OPEN BAFFLEWith Qts 4.0 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 5.657; for a flat response this driver is better used on an infinite (IB) or open baffle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the recommended ported (bass reflex) box volume for Eminence EMILEG125_2PK?
A simple ported box is not recommended for Eminence EMILEG125_2PK: the textbook alignment (26.0 liters tuned to 79.9 Hz) needs a 760.7 cm port, and no nearby retune stays buildable without a bass hump. A sealed box, a passive radiator or a folded duct is the practical choice.
Can Eminence EMILEG125_2PK be used in a sealed box?
Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 32.5 liters with a Qtc of 5.657 (above Butterworth: Qtc cannot fall below Qts (4.00)), the system exhibits an F3 of 111.6 Hz.
What port dimensions should be used for Eminence EMILEG125_2PK to avoid port chuffing?
A straight 75.8 cm port would need 760.7 cm of length, which does not fit a practical cabinet. Use a passive radiator or a folded/3D duct instead of a straight tube.
