What speaker for Tweed Extension Cabinet

[iismet]

I purchased a tweed Fender Deluxe Extension Cabinet to go with my 16 watt 5e3 clone. I had my tech wire the clone so I can use it's internal speaker and the extension speaker at the same time. The cabinet came in yesterday and I am very excited about the prospects. No doubt it greatly improves bass response. I have a Celestion Blue in the clone. The Cabinet comes with a Celestion G12P-80. It was always my intention to put a lower output speaker in, and as neat as it is, I am still convinced. Just not enough oomph to drive that speaker the way I like - clean though.

The extension cabinet is closed back. I am looking at another Celestion Blue, G12H30, or possibly a Vintage JBL D120F (lot's of money - but would it be worth it).

Can any of you give me opinions on this. Of those 3 which would you select for the best overall performance and balance or does it even matter. I am a Blues Player and like old school power side breakup. I run the amp almost flat out and manage dynamics at the Guitar.

Thanks

Heard some very good things about the Eminence Cannibus Rex, but they were all in openback cabs. Hard to go wrong with a Weber!

Want to stay between 15 and 30 watts. I've heard good things about the Weber.

They are beautiful speakers - the one in my clone just sings. i may be leaning towards the g1230h. With the closed back cabinet, there are those that think the bass response will be better than the blue. The blue in my clone, takes some work to control the bass with palm muting. The first thing i noticed with the speaker that came in the cabinet, is how much more articulate the bass is. Even with the low E dropped to D it is much more manageable.
