No idea what that means, but it must be good innit (Waza>COSM)?
No modelling
Not sure if the power amp is conventional solid state or class D.

This is actually infinitely preferable to your usual crappy digital practice amp with an 8" speaker calling its patches "Rectifier", or "Marshall Major 200" or whatever.

Although I sold mine I think they are pretty good, not massively better than other modelling amps, but making them appear like an analog amp with the plethora of digital options hidden, seems to have really helped with peoples perception of them. No nasty presets and WISYWIG control layout means you can quickly get the best if the amp before being turned off. Then should you wish, connect it to a PC and then there’s the full capability. They have removed the option paralysis and packaged the same tech in a more mature package.
When I tried mine, I also had a go on a L6 Spider and had to endure some really bad sounds to get to any good sounds. It felt a bit nasty too, but ultimately there we’re pretty good sounds in there.
I think this is the way forward for modelling amps and I’m sure people would pay a bit more for more quality packages, built around modelling tech, it doesn’t have to be all aimed at the young market.
I think a Helix combo could do well, quality cab, Helix brains, can be used as really good acoustic or bass amplification. Classic looks, reasonable weight. There could also be an amp only version for people that already have the Helix floor ir rack units.
Tube logic, same as roland blues cube, or boss waza-amps.
DSP used for the speaker, line out and other stuff (just check vg forum)
