Best 3 EP's for a 300mm F5 dob

I've had my dob for 6 months and love it. I'm thinking of upgrading my EP's and would like to hear anybody's thoughts on what i should get. I currently have the 2 plossls (9 & 15mm) & the 2" 32MM supplied with the scope (Bintel) My main interset is Deeeep sky- nebs, globs, planetary globs etc and the occasional look at Jupiter & Saturn & I quite like the moon. I find myself using the 32mm 2" a lot and also the 9mm plossl. I got to have a look thru an Andrews 30mm 80' at the last Bridgenorth nite and loved the wide field.
The 3 EP's I'm thinking of are: andrews 30mm 2", 9mm & 13mmT6 Nagler and a TV 2.5x Powermate. That would give me mags of 50x, 115x, 167x, 287x & 417x.
If anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
