I’m looking to get a couple more speakers variations for my box of doom isocab (only have a v30 currently but looking to add a redback and…)

I’ve been really gelling with some IRs of blackbacks recently—like the one from ML sound labs mikko reflex and some others for my amps (wizard hellrazor, Hermansson mod, Meshuggah etc). And have been looking at the scumbacks as they have a “blackback” toned version. I play more djenty-ish toned metal and am wondering if these might get me to the sound I’m currently looking for or if I should get a Celestion greenback for my collection.

Any insight/advice is appreciated!

Sorry, been hammered with too many orders! You're going to want the BH55 speaker as it has the 55hz cone that has more bass.
 
I'd also pick the Scumback over the Greenback. The Greenback isn't a bad speaker but the heavier magnet of the BH55 will help the response time and definition when playing faster stuff. Greenbacks move a hair slower and might sound looser. This may be splitting hairs.
I have a quad of BM-75's in a cab and they sound tighter than Greenbacks and don't have that woody weird midrange. I do like both and think they blend well together also.
