Hi all!

Recently I bought a Behringer ultrabass 210 combo amp (used) and when I first tried it out, I loved it.

Just this past weekend, I put it thru its paces, and heard some buzzing from one of the alum cone drivers. According to the repair shop, the aluminum cone "broke" off from the surround, and he successfully repaired it using some kind of epoxy type stuff. During my final night, same thing happened to the other driver, so I'm going to get that one fixed as well.

I really like the amp, but after initially dismissing the reviews I read online about the weak spkrs, I now have to agree. I know Behringer has two kinds of drivers the aluminum cone and the paper cone which they use in the higher wattage cabs.

My question is what are my options. I want to keep the amp, but can/should I get the paper cone spkrs (if they are more reliable) or are there other option. The amp is rated at 450 peak watts so I'm guessing the OEMs are about 200-250 rms power.

I've looked at the websites for other drivers like Celestion, but I didn't find any 10" drivers with the wattage that would work (I'm thinking in the 300W rms range).

Is it possible/worthwhile to maybe stick 2 12" in that cab or something?

By the way, I've read some of the postings on here and I know that many of you strongly dislike Behringer (I feel the same about Peavey), but so far the only complaint I have is that their Bugera drivers can't handle the power of the amp.

If anyone is willing to share some [u]helpful and constructive[u] advice I would be very appreciative. Thanks
