Speaker mods seem to favour Weber (lightly doped), the Cannabis Rex or Guitar Warehouse do a G12C (75 watts) that seems to find favour with a lot of people.
Whilst the cabinet is pine, I've been told the baffle board on these is chipboard or plywood and replacing improves the speaker performance. Snake oil?? Dunno but I'd be nervous about doing anything until I've gigged it for a while and even then, if I did have anything done, it would have to be easily reversible, just in case it wasn't for me.
Of note, one of my favourite guitarists, Steve Lukather, used a Paul Rivera -modded Deluxe Reverb for the first Toto album and so the sound you hear on songs like "Hold the line" are supposedly coming from a DR.

As to Lukather and the DR - you're right. He has that Lukather sound on it and it's gainy and sounds nothing like a stock one, even if it were wound up. I'll see if I can dig up any more info as to what he had done to it.
