Advice on replacing 12 in woofer in Martin Logan Monolith III's


I'm needing to replace the 12 inch woofers in my Martin Logan Monolith III's.  I am running a dBx 260 active crossover so I can control x-over points and output.   Any suggestions?

I've emiled ML to find out the cubic size,  but who know if they will respond. 

George do think the ScanSpeak Discovery 30W/4558T would be my best option?  I dug around looking for some SV12's, no luck yet.
Thanks for all the input.  I have reached out to ScanPeak  for more data on the Discovery 30/4558.  Also inbox the guy that had the SV12's for sale,  but haven't heard anything. Even though the post was a year ago, I think maybe he still has them.   I will be putting a sub with the setup,  so I don't need it to down real deep.  Question:  what would be the ideal  crossover point for the ELS  running at three-way?

That's good news!   Hopefully he will respond to my inbox.  Thanks for all your help George!

Thanks for the info Tim.   Finding that driver is the problem  :).  It seems they are very hard to come by so I'm trying to figure out what the next best thing is. 
I will still look for the SV12's but if I can't find them what driver would you guys recommend?  I'm just not as knowledgeable on driver specs.  Being that I 'm running a SVS sub,  I need a driver that is a good mid-bass.
So the box is not square as George indicated, it is 25 inches wide and tapers to 19 inches at rear.  24 inches H and 11 inches deep
You would think this  measurement would be on the Internet. I've looked at MartinLogan site and around the net, but can't find it. 

With a lot of advice and help from Tim (Timlub) I purchased a Dayton 12 inch driver. Since I'm running a dbx 260 active xover, I was able to to dial in the xover points and the slope,  it sounds amazing.  Also I added a SVS sub, which really brought out the lows.  Still have some room EQ I need to deal with, but overall it sounds awesome. Thanks Tim!
