Our Ceriatone Vibro Champ is a head, so we run it with all kinds of different cab/speaker options.  Our silver face Fender has one of those modern day Jensen's, I believe it s a CR-8, gold label with red lettering, 4 ohms of course.  That is a surprisingly good speaker, has more bass response than you might expect. That is about all the help I can give you.
Good Luck

Why the preference for 4ohms?  I can't seem to find clear answers on why certain impedances might be better than others (other than just matching up w/ a prewired cab).

Not sure what you mean by, "Why the preference for 4 ohms?"
What amp are you referring to?
The Fender's came with an OT that had a 4 Ohm tap only.  So there was no "preference", because there was no choice.
The Ceriatone Vibro Champ has an impedance selector, so you have a lot of flexibility with that amp.

Misread--sorry!  I thought you were still referring to the Ceriatone w/ the 4ohm speaker.

I'm using a Weber 10A100 alnico and love it.  It's my final speaker for this amp.  I've tried quite a few and find this the best.  Warm, good depth and mids, and can chime when needed.  Best of all is the very smooth compression.
