A loudspeaker includes a motor assembly having a back plate and a pole piece centrally disposed with respect to the back plate. The pole piece has a first end and a second end, where the pole piece has a center vent allowing bi-directional air flow in and out of the motor assembly. The motor assembly further includes a top plate concentrically disposed with respect to the pole piece, and a magnet disposed between the back plate and the top plate, wherein a magnetic air gap is defined between the pole piece and the top plate. The loudspeaker further includes a voice coil disposed in the air gap. The pole piece includes at least one NACA duct formed therein, the at least one NACA duct having an inlet located at an internal surface of the pole piece in fluid communication with the center vent and an outlet located at an exterior surface of the pole piece in fluid communication with the magnetic air gap in order to extract air flow from the center vent and redirect the air flow toward the voice coil.
