If you don't mind the "pro" look, Peavey SP-2, or if you can find a pair SP-4. SP-3 is not in the same league, avoid them.

. I like to go with the Magnavox horn and 15" woofer vintage . Something about horns and metal when the mood hits.

CV or Realistic Mach (I, II or III). If you want really loud and don't care about the quality at all - Infinity SM-155.

2nd.
I'd also throw Yamaha Club series in there. They can often be had reasonably. Yamaha S215 would be similar to the SP-4.
Here's Yamaha S215 atop JBL SR4719X.

If you can still find any, any DCM KX series will melt your face with a handful of watts.

3rd on the CV D-9...
What is the room size? Reason for asking is when I had my D-9's, I could not get them far enough away from Turntable so I had to reduce the bass from flat to almost all the way down in order to crank them. My amp's sonic filter helped but could still see woofer bounce from feedback, mainly on silent or lower passes. The room size was probably 12 x 16 w/8' flat ceiling if I remember correctly.
Not saying this will happen with you, just mentioning my experience with my conditions

I like to feel it as much as hear it. Don't mind distortion, but I tend to blow drivers.

I would think so, a lot of pro audio speakers are efficient, but you really have to look at the efficiency or sensitivity rating. The 1250 has a good amount of power so it would drive most speakers, you just have to use common sense with the volume knob. II'll 2nd the cerwin vega d-9's, also pioneer hpm-100 or 900, RtR 280dr's will blow the house down, RtR hpr-12m, dcm kx series, and pro audio speakers with large drivers.
Klipsch Chorus II's. Rated for 1000wpc and 101db sensitivity rating. You ears will give out long before they do.
