What are the best amp and cab for clean sounds?

My gig over the weekend was a blues show and about 90% of the time I used my Band Commander preset (a bluesy rhythm/OD tone for use with single coils on my HSS guitar). When you dig it gets some hair but cleans up nicely when you back off picking and/or volume control. I max the Input Drive and goose it a little bit with the Input Trim. Boosted with the FAS Boost for leads.

The BC is a really lively, fully bodied amp...one of my favorite Fenders in the box.

the rukus drive with the band commander pairs really well with my strat
 
I'm pretty in love with the Citrus AC30 for cleans. Sparkly! The Shiver Clean is my choice for a thicker, darker clean sound.
 
What's the best recipe for chicken soup? Ask ten people, and you'll get ten opinions—and you might not think that any of them is the best.

Pick an amp model that you can dial in clean (that's most of them). Then search through the factory cabs until you find one that's closest to the clean sound that you're looking for. Then, if you want to, pick a different amp and see how it sounds.
