I know they don't get too much press time on this board, but I have nothing but love for the Mesa 3/4-back cabs. I use two 1x12s, one on top of the other. The one on top has a C90, and the one on bottom I've changed to a EV12L (inspired by the old Mark series cabs).
GREAT sound, surprisingly tight low end from the EV cabinet, and just the right amount of "airy"-ness to get the most of from clean tones. Also, the setup is pretty flexible because I can bring just one or two cabs to a gig depending on the volume needed.
I have a recto 2x12 that has not been played for two years since I got these cabs, they're that good!
EDIT: My apologies to the original poster, I didn't realize you were asking about 2x12 cabs specifically. FWIW, they make the 3/4-back cabs in 2x12 versions too!
