Does anybody know much about all the different models of Weber 10" Alnicos?

I am looking for some help in what to buy. I looked through all the models.
Looking for a warm blues kind of sound, but open as well. Need full range with really good midrange sustain capability.
Any ideas or experience?
Thanks

I have the Blue Pup and Silver Ten ceramics. I am very happy with them both. I have one of each mounted in a 4 X 10" Marshall 1965B cab with the other holes left open. It gives me Marshall crunch with VOX jangle. They have a distinct Celestion voicing and break up with a nice bark. I am totally satisfied with them.

The alnico Silver Tens are warmer, and would probably be better for blues than the blues (How about that? ).

Usually I find the more full-range-ish speakers to be less warm, but others may have different opinions.

If you are doing mostly blues, I would actually go with the 10A125. Those things smoke in a Bassman-type setup. They are bright, but not overly so.

They have more bass also but I personally prefer the Blue Pups. Its all just personal preference and the guitar and amp you use can throw it either way.
