okay.
What cab with 10 inch drivers will be as loud and as big as a ampeg v-4b 2x15 cab.

as loud? a 410. as big? well 410's aren't usually big like 215's.

Get displacement limited power charts from Ampeg, compare them to displacement limited power charts from manufacturers of 810s you're considering.

Otherwise audition them side by side, that's the only other way of knowing.

I 'm thinking of a rig for me.
Use a hiwatt alike 100watt cab twin channel, link it and run it thru a 8x10.
Ampeg v-4b thru ampeg v-4 2x15 portaflex cabinet and do the same link but from low to high.
and than run my stereo rick treble channel thru the hiwatt alike and the bass thru the v-4b.

the 810 would overpower the 215. There wouldn't be anything wrong with getting 2 of the same cab. 810s can handle lows, and 215s can handle highs
