The 7189 is an EL84 "on steroids". If 7189 amps are included in the discussion, definitely check out the Sherwood 5000.BTW, some of the Fisher and Scott models mentioned may really be 7189, not EL84.
The current production, made in Russia, 6p14p-ev, AKA EL84M, is a genuine 7189 equivalent that exhibits quite decent sonics, along with being tougher than the proverbial brick outhouse.
