The a Eminence Delta 15b model ( parts express item 290-419 for 16 ohms) is the best bang for the buck in regards to drivers under 100 bucks!

Thanks, my 500 has 8 ohms speakers so I probably should look at Delta 15A's?

The delta's are a very good speaker for the price ( I have 6 in 2 cabinets). Problem is that I don't get the really deep bass sound on the really low notes. I would personally opt for the more expensive Eminence bass speakers myself since I did hear a pair and they definitely pushed the lower notes. Regardless, the guys are right, they are good speakers and reasonably priced and lots of power.
