I totally agree with pleat, the 8 ohm 421A is the ideal speaker. 15 inches of solid gold tone and a frequency responce down to 30 HZ make it "MUCHO VERSITAL" in any low wattage amp 100 watts or less. I'd be affraid of high wattage speakers because of added structural weight of the heavier cone, heavier voice coil and added magnetic structure to deal with at 50 watt RMS. That will hurt you in efficiency. I would think more like a low wattage high efficency speaker replacement with a wide frequency responce like Jensen P15N or C15N or a JBL "F" series like the
D130F and my favorite the Altec 421A. I have that Amp with the Altec 421A and it sounds fantastic!! Steve C
