I just blew out the 8 1/4" bass driver on my Optimus STS-800 and I need to know what I can use to replace it for under $50. The speaker's specs are as follows:

Speaker Complement ...............Woofer: 8 1/4-Inch Vacuum-Formed Polypropylene
Midrange: 5-Inch Polypropylene
Tweeter: 3/4-Inch Mylar Dome
Impedance .................................................. ............................... 8 Ohms (Nominal)
Frequency Response.......................................... ..............................45 Hz–20 kHz
Power Handling (RMS) .................................................. ......................... 100 Watts
Maximum Power .................................................. ................................... 200 Watts
Sensitivity....................................... .................................................. .............. 88 dB

Internet links would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks.

Would this be a good match?

It honestly looks identical to the original woofer...

Guys I realize nobody has ever heard of this speaker before... it's some off-brand RadioShack type thing.
