I'm using Fender Super Champ XD 15 Watt tube amp driving a 10" Fender speaker. I'm planning to upgrade in steps and want to avoid making expensive intermediate mistakes. Following are planned stages, with some attendant questions-and likely there are some questions I should be asking but don't know enough to ask yet. Feel free to make suggestions or ridicule my plans-I can take it!
1.) Build a Scoop Design Aux speaker cab for high-quality 12" speaker, unplug the on-board 10" Fender speaker and use this combination for awhile.
1.a.) Scoop design to use rounded baffles of thin but solid spruce with braces as per insides of an acoustic guitar (speaker mount area obviously reinforced, but the plan is to get the cabinet to reverberate and contribute to the sound output.)
2.) SuperChamp XD power output is 15 watts. Eventually I want to upgrade to a 40-60 Watt tube amp with a single 12" speaker on-board and use my already-built aux cabinet to boost coverage.
2.a) I've noticed aux speakers for sale come in different wattage ratings. Since I intend to eventually use a higher wattage amp driving my aux. cab., I'll probably buy a 75 or 100 watt speaker. How will this speaker perform when driven with my SuperChamp XD?

With a " too " powerfull speaker you"ll hear only the amp .

With a low powerfull speaker you 'll hear the amp and the speaker ( working +/- hard )

For your futur need better to buy a powerfull speaker .
