Deluxe Reverb Speaker Choices

pHiL	Deluxe Reverb Speaker Choices OK, I have a SFDR on the way with a dead speaker. I have an 8 ohm Celestion V30 laying around that I can put in there but was looking for some opinions of what works well in this amp. I've always been partial to alnico magnet speakers and was thinking of going that route. Also, does any body know what they were originally issued with from the factory. I've read at various places that they came with anything from Jensen, CTS, "Oxfords" (aren't these shoes). Anyway this is going to be a nice little project amp that I would like to keep mostly original with minor mods to the circuit to BF it. I've also entertained the thought of maybe modding the trem ckt to the older (brown version) variable voltage type if that's even possible on this amp. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks, pHiL
