Speaker for DRRI?
What's the best speaker for the DRRI? I'm specifically interested in Celestion - what exactly is the difference between blue, gold, and cream?

Re: Speaker for DRRI?
‘Best’ can be pretty subjective. What do you dislike about your DRRI’s current speaker? What kind of volume are you looking for?
Talking Celestion specifically, I loved the 70s Greenback I had paired with my DRRI for a while. I really enjoyed the slightly warmer (though still plenty chimey) treble response, as well as the classic greenback breakup character. The Celestion switch yielded a lot less headroom and perceived volume than the Jensen it replaced, which may be a good or bad thing depending on your individual needs.

Celestion Gold. You’ll need the power handling over a Blue’s 15 watt rating, unless you want some breakup coming from the speaker at higher volumes.
