I'm going to buy a Hot Rod Deluxe, but I want to replace the stock speaker, as I've read you can get a far better overdrive tone by replacing it.

Could someone recommend me a good speaker that
a) suits this clean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re9qdd6GdTg
b) suits this overdrive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJRcIhPAygg
(As you can see I mostly play Dire Straits :) )

Consider the class of the power tubes that are currently in the amp now. If you prefer Groove tubes & like to play clean you would fair better using the range from 8 to 10 or (White) color coded 6L6 GC Groove tubes. If you want the best of both worlds consider using Mesa Boogie Power Tube Duet 6L6GC. This tube breaks up at around 8 when biased before THD sets in. Depending on the sound you are tyring to obtain, consider how a 40 watt speaker is voiced. The specs on the speakers for this amp can be obtained on this web site. Don't forget the KISS affect. KYF
