I've tried some other speakers (in other cabs) but the stock Jensen really works well with this amp and doesn't take long to break in. IMO - The trick for lower volumes is to still use the Bright channel, input 2, and dial the treble down to 3.5 -4 and bass around 6. But at TV volumes = yum!

Yes, when cranking it up a bit the heavens open up. Put a KoT or similar in front and the universe aligns. The CDR gets the most play by a wide margin. and have had oodles of different things over the years. By far my favorite amp! I've got 7 other Fenders, couple of Boogie, Marshal, EVH, and a few others in the house.

I had a hand-wired (non)Fender PR type amp with a 12" Weber speaker.
