Changing Speakers In A SVT 4x10 Cab - Recommendations?

Greenbacks are guitar drivers, not the best idea for bass. The OEM Ampeg drivers may appear 'cheap', with smallish magnets and stamped frames, but that's how drivers optimized for sealed cabs should look. Uber-magnet drivers don't work well in sealed cabs. As for a suitable replacement, first you need to be sure of what you have, then you need to be sure that whatever you intend to replace them with will actually be an improvement. Geenbacks, for instance, would be a major downgrade from the original OEM.
