Cabinet's Impact on Tone

 IMHO if you can do it, i'd replace that cab with a better built cab. 

Good Luck, the chase is never totally over.

Took this advice and snagged a '98 Marshall 1960B. Theoretically, it's better built with better speakers than my cheaper M412A.

You did good, now the cabinet itself is out of the equation. Next step is a speaker swap if you still not happy. My guess is it has Vintage 30's which would pair up nicely with 2 ET65's or 1265 Celestions. 

 
I've owned a LOT of cabinets.

The best by far was Bogner 4x12 straight cabinet with UK made V30s.  It is rear loaded, true 13 ply birch plywood.

I never liked front mounted cabinets like the VHT or Boogies with the metal grill covering.
