Ceramics are a bit louder and slightly harsher. Ceramics are also usually a bit "punchier" Alnico magnets are a little less loud(which you may want/like especially with a loud amp like a hiwatt) and when you push them hard they compress and get a fatter sound. but alnicos are also more expensive.
that being said the Axis and Crescendo are two different speakers even if you have the same magnet. Mixing them would give a great balanced hiwatt-y sound. Bright yet plenty of bass and punch, but it shouldnt get "harsh"
i think Pickmaster used one with his OTS and really liked it

ah ok. I think my amps sounds very boxy when you hit the PAB switch.
yeah i get that too, usually a only use it for a jazzy sound on the clean channel. but on certain days it sound pretty good on OD too

Don't quite understand your last remark you said it bypasses the bass and mids and later you say when you add mids it adds highs??
Listen to any fender, marshall, or dumble tonestack. as you add mids it also raises the highend somewhat. listen to the added brightness you get when you flip the midboost switch i suggested only bypassing mids and bass(if its even doable) because you will still get a flatter EQ boost which wont sound as trebly

adjust your tonestack higher. for example if your treble, middle, and bass were at 5,6,6 try 6/7,8,8. if you dime TMB you will get a very small PAB but if you keep them very low you will get a bigger boost

what i would like to really see is a channel switching hiwatt, i love the cleans and the OD but you cant use an A/B box due to the huge volume jump there would need to be another master volume to control OD
