M2 should be easily resolved, try again on a dark night, from memory it handles power reasonably well.
With eyepieces, my experience with my old 12" dob was that the best eyepiece combo was a 24mm Panoptic and a 13mm T6 Nagler. The 24Pan is the queen of eyepieces for medium sized scopes in my opinion. F5 will still give tack sharp stars to the edge, the field is wide but still easy to see it all, nice eye relief and not too heavy. Just a cracker of an EP. Having said that I have a 30mm GSO superview also and as far as value goes it is a keeper.
The 13mm nag may be out of your price range, but if keen on a good medium power EP, it would be right u there as a savings goal IMHO.
