Greetings to you!
Since your only using the amp at home adding 20 more pounds to its weight is not a issue and keeping that in mind I would search out 2 EVM15L drivers , these will all be the needed 8 ohm type more then likely so you can have the preferred 4 ohm load.
Note that if you can find 2 blown EVM15B models ( Bass model ) you can get them reconded into the L model.

The sound and punch of your amp with these drivers in it will have folks that play or hear it drooling!!!

My next pick in regards to installing new drivers would be from Jensen.

One of there C15N drivers and a C15K in 8 ohms would be the way to go !

Any new Jensen drivers and even many good new ones I have seen need to be broken in for 12 to 24 hours, visit the uncle spot site for info on how to due such.

Note that many times you can find the C15K model used in great shape on EBay.

Other chooses for drivers would be used JBL K130 or E130 models, Altec 418 models or new versions of these two from Weber speakers, either way used or new they will not be cheap.

You may also beable to turn up used blown Jensen models like the C15N , P15N or the C15L and get them reconded.

The C15L model has a heavier cone and would would need to be reconded into the N model.
