Default Eminence 3012HO

OK...bear with me folks. I have a DIY MTM tower pair that has finally blown the surrounds. I am now building a low power tube amp (2.2 W) so I need to jump up the sensitivity multiple factors. The existing enclosure is appx 9" wide by 13" deep and 48" high. The current BAD drivers are set-up as an MTM 6 1/2".
As I cannot seem to find a high sensitivity 6.5" pair I am considering flipping the enclosure around & mounting a larger more sensitive driver on the "long" wall.
I found the Eminence Kappalite 3012HO Neo with the following specs.
100.5 Db, Vas 2.86cu ft, Qts .32, Qms 8.39, Qes .33, Fs 51.5 Htz, 51-3500 Htz.
The numbers say I can work with this volume of enclosure (2.28 cu ft. ).
Has anyone had any experience with this driver? Am I really off base with this driver?

3012HO measurements and used the the No Quarters (same guy who did the measurements) and possibly in some of the Econowave variants, but you'll need to search for them yourself.
