Default Best Tweeter for OMEGA PRO 15

I have Bass Guitar Cab loaded with a Eminence Omega Pro 15 woofer and use it together with a 2x10" generic speaker cab: sounds ok but not good, also the impedance is missmaching between the cabs.... I'm playing a 4-string bass, all kind of sounds.

I would like to reconstruct the bass cab and put in a tweeter and a 2nd order two-way filter. I allready have some basic ideas how to calculate the cab. But what tweeter should I look for (typ, rating)? The Omega Pro has a usable frequency range from 35hz - 2 khz, rated 800W. The data sheet is
http://editweb.iglou.com/eminence/eminence/pages/products02/speakpro/om15.htm.

Any suggestions ore experience with this woofer would be welcome.

Oh a other point - a would like to buy something in the lower price range...

OK, can't say I have any experience with that "woofer", but as for opinions...

Forget the crossover. Run your speaker full range, and select a pro audio tweeter that matches well with it, maybe similar to this:

Default Cool

Hey man THX, that's realy cool!

I didn't expect to resolve that so easy and for only about 25 bugs!

I'll wait a couples of days to look if any other answers show up on the board - than I'll order that tweeter.
