Origin 20 head alternative?

I really like my Marshall Origin 20 Combo, but prefer it through a 12" speaker, I could possibly shoehorn a 12 into the current cab or covert the Combo into a head, although I'm reluctant to do either, so I might chop the combo in for an Origin 20 head, however I thought it wise to ask if there are any alternative similar amp heads out there for £500 tops?.....
On the Origin, I like the sound it produces, the footswitchble boost (although a pedal could do that) and the power scaling, anything else that is similar? Something reliable.....

    Really like mine.

    The H&K Puretone is beans SH and amazing.

    Other than that probably Jet City but they are much gainier.

    Jet City JCA20HV - that's the lower-gain, vintage-voiced one.

    I'm sat in the middle of a campsite giggling to myself...my other amp is a JCA20HV!

    It would appear I should do a side by side test! It has sat unused since I got the Marshall.....
