I use exclusively the Radio Shack 40-1991 Optimus cube speaker. It's a 4" general driver that will accept about 20 watts and seems to provide a very well rounded note and works quite well on SWB listening as well on my Paragon. It's relatively attractive in the shack as well.

I would like to know if any has found a really good sounding external
speaker for the Ten Tec Jupiter.

Dave when I had my Jupiter I used an old Heathkit SB-600 speaker.  It gave
great audio, I now use it on my Omni VI Plus.  The Drake MS 4 has been
reported to have good audio with Ten-Tec rigs however I have not tried it.

I traded the Jupiter for a Pegasus and use the LINE OUT to the computer
sound card with great results.  I think the Jupiter has the LINE OUT on it
and you may want to try the computer sound card.  So far that gives me the
best audio.

On my Omni C I use the MFJ 281 CLEAR TONE Speaker with good results however
if I could find a good Heathkit SB-600 Speaker I would put it on the old
Omni C.

Good luck on this, it is the only complaint I have with Ten-Tec
transceivers.
