I'm building a ss rectified version of this amp to go in an ancient tweed suitcase. I'm going to go for Weber's 12F100 because I can get it coned at 4ohms to match the output transformer. Also the wattage handling is as close to the amp's output as I can find. Any other speaker recommendations out there for a single ended 6A or BQ5 powered amp?

I am building a GA5T and I am going to make it a head so I am not locked in to one speaker .....I have an original ga5t  that sounds great with an 8,12,15,2x12.....I don't have a 4x10 or 4x12 but i've heard they sound good too
