I had a 50 watt Alnico silver bell, very middy, great classic vibe ... my reaper is 55Hz so I can't comment, but have 75Hz Scumback H75 and think, in general, the tonal range of the 75 Hz will be quite a bit higher frequency. The H vibe is a lot different as well. A Celestion greenback RI might be more similar if you're looking for similar.

The Reaper HP is nice, I would also highly recommend a Scumback M75, ASW KTS70 or the WGS Blackhawk 50.

the silver bell has rolled off highs, especially compared to "blue" style speaker. i have one of each (the other is a blue dog) and they are both great.

The regular Reaper is brighter than the HP (50W).

I'say :
Reinhardt R65H-SC (but possibly not available anymore)
Weber Blue 30 or 50W
Weber Legacy 30 or 65W 50oz magnet SC
