I am looking for an affordable pair of passive speakers to go with my powered mixer. These will be for performances in small to medium sized venues as well as practice.

The mixer is a Behringer PMP4000. The basic specs are as follows:

2x 800w stereo, 1600w bridged mode

2-CH Mode - 400w @ 8 ohms, 800w @ 4 ohms (4 ohm min. load)

Bridged Mode - 1600w @ 8 ohms (8 ohm min. load)

I've been reading about rms/program/peak power and watts vs. impedance, but I am kind of lost. My goal is to get speakers that are as cheap as possible without being piles of junk in terms of sound and reliability. Any help from someone who knows about this stuff would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I have the mixer's users manual here if you need more detailed specs.
