What to pair with an G12H-75 Creamback in a vertical open back 2x12?

I want to reorder my cabs a bit.
Looking for suggestions for something to pair with an G12H-75 Creamback in a vertical open back 2x12?

The cab is a Zilla Panhead (Dumble, Two Rock style).
Mine is convertible from open to closed back.

I have a G12H-75 that I'd like put put in there.
I'll be wiring it for mono/stereo (really dual mono).

Amps will be a Matchless Laurel Canyon, Bogner 3534, so a mix of vintage and modern tones.
I do not want a V30 in there. 

I already have a few 2x12's with Celestion G12-65 Heritages, Golds and Creambacks.

    G12M-65 Creamback, at the top.

    I have a couple of Matchless amps at my studio and the cabs have a G12H75 creamback and an Alnico Cream. I love that combo

    Any issue with the difference in sensitivity between the H and M?

    Was about to suggest a V30 til I read all the way through. To be fair it does pair really well with the Creamback H though. 

    I'd maybe look for a Marshall Vintage speaker which to me do sound a bit different to a normal V30. Bit warmer and more vintage sounding with less of that high end sizzle.

    No - the M is more midrangy and fuzzier than the deeper and clearer H, so it sounds louder relative to its sensitivity. The two speakers sound the same volume in a cab, even a horizontal one where a difference seems to be more noticeable.

    Cheers.

    Annoyingly I have a pair of G12M but they are 16 ohms but my G12H is 8 ohms.
