Depending on how "heavy" your wallet is, you have several choices for
speakers. In the 12" category, if you want vintage tone with a big full
low end, you'll be hard pressed to beat a pair of old Jensen P12N alnicos.
They're expensive, but they sound great. If you can't afford that, look
into the Celestion Vintage 30s.
For 10" speakers, there's the Celestion Vintage 10. The Mojo alnico 10s
are a little lightweight for this amp, since they're P10R repros. I don't
think the really excellent old Jensen P10Qs would live in this amp, they'd
blow. The Jensen ceramics may be an option. Maybe you can find a set of
C10Ns.
A Pro Reverb with an 8 ohm transformer???? Not that I've ever seen. If
your transformer has part number 022848, it's a 4 ohm transformer. Make
sure your tech knows what the hell he's doing.
