Want to swap the speaker in my Vox AC10. It has a Celestion V Type Jr and the amp is too "chimey" for my taste. Like ice pic in the ear "chimey". The top boost circuit, bass and treble controls, makes it so when I bring my mids up the highs go up too. I'm thinking a mellower speaker might help like a celestion creamback or Ted Weber alnico blue pup. Oh yeah, glass= 2x ehx el84's and 1 tunsol and 1 mullard 12ax7. Maybe different valves?

Yeah, a different speaker may help. Ye want a Vox to be chimey but not to the point you can cut diamonds with it , and this amp is, as you note, basically the top boost channel of its bigger brethren.
A tech's perspective on this model:
