I have an EUB (Eminence) and DB, and I also (mostly) play bass guitar
To be honest, I found larger speakers didn't work well for me on EUB or DB - they seemed rather boomy, and not well defined in the lower end
I'd heard a lot of DB players talk of using smaller speakers, DB string dynamics working better, and "recovery time" of the speakers with several small units rather than one large...

I had a Markbass rig, which comprised a CMD210, and a 1x!5 ext cab. And both definitely sounded better without the 1 x 15 attached
Nowadays, I tend to use my Phil Jones 4 x 5 Pirhana cab, and I think the sound is much more well defined and focussed
A lot of DB players use amps like the Phil Jones Briefcase or suitcase, which also have small speakers, and I've heard some great DB through both

Of course, a lot will depend on what you prefer, what you're playing, and what type of sounds you're after
It may well be quite different for Rockabilly style a slapping
But try your rig with and without the 15 - see what you think of that first off

But most of all, enjoy your new toy :)
