Very interesting, so the KA-XBL-8NEO looks like an 8" woofer, neo magnet, XBL. The data on the page for it is misaligned, making it hard to index, but a lot of it is there. I can't tell what the second graph given for the driver is, maybe distortion with excursion? Odd. Looks interesting though!

The 8" looks comparable to the new Epique thing - plus real Xmax and a little more usable motor parameters while maintaining good sensitivity. All in all, I would imagine tossing a coin to see which is the better $300 8" driver is as good a way to settle it.
However - how many boutique driver manufacturers have come and gone? I know this guy has been around forever, so there is hope this line sticks around.
JP - I am reading that second chart as distortion over excursion, as well.

That would be correct. Distortion over excursion it is.
