Look to be simplified versions of the originals, Line 6’s delayed answer to the runaway success of Fender’s FR range?

I'm a bit confused 

So it seems this is a power amp and traditional guitar speaker with a DI out where you can load IRs. That makes perfect sense. 

So why bypass the EQ if you're using it as a regular cab and instead have a stupid speaker sim mode? It would make much more sense to have EQ into the speaker like if you were using a Pedal Baby into a regular cab

The demo vid confuses me. You can choose different speaker voicings, but the demo goes from clean to distortion as if it's an amp modeller? I thought they'd all be clean but with different EQ, or am I missing something?

Shhhhh. It will be all explained with the null models….
