Ingo,
I’ve seen Utah, Oxford, and Jensen speakers common in Pro Reverbs.
When I first started repairing Fender amps in the late ’60s some people
put some JBL D120s in their Pros also (but, to my knowledge they did NOT
come from Fender like that, like the Twin-Reverbs did – I may be wrong,
but have never seen them stock…)
As far as what sounded the best…most people liked the Jensens, then
the Utah, and then the Oxfords… they all seemed pretty close to me at
the time. Now I’ve been replacing them with WeberVST P12N or P12Q
speakers… they are a great replacement speaker for a gigging musician!
If you were a collector I’d recomend a “stock” speaker…
later, Ron

 

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
