My favorite 10" is the square driver speaker in my Alamo.

I use eminence legends in an old Ampeg 4x10. Sounds fantastic...but to be fair, even though it was technically sold as a bass cab in the 70's, it's essentially a V4 cab with 10" cutouts.
Special low-frequency version.

mine is one of the fatter SVT style cabs. the bottom half of an 8X10" fridge, basically. i don't NEED another guitar cab, but it's an idea that intrigues me.
