Neo 8 distortion data
The pro-audio white paper might be useful for you.

The frame and membrane material and structures are very similar, magnets should be identical. So THD values should be close - but most likely better.
At lower output the THD figures are far better, with something like 0.1% THD at 80-85 db SPL or so. (No I don't have the URLs anymore)
If you build a line source, you can keep individual driver output below 90 db while playing a rather loud near 100 db SPL with say 8 drivers per side - you would have a marvelously low THD.
Hope this helps

A distortion chart at (I think) 90dB is posted here:

If this is accurate, it's pretty good, although it doesn't match the best cone drivers below 1k. Below 0.3 % from 900Hz up, and below 0.1% 2k-8k. Rises below 900, presumably as excursion comes into play.
