That would be one thing, that would be light, and relatively easy to transport...I do wish more solid state combos had extension speaker outs. That would seal the deal.
You ask a legitimate question. I think for me, it came down to wanting a lightweight, easily transportable solution, without adding more to our stage.

I can literally put the lid on my pedalboard and haul my entire rig...”amp” and all. I can run it to an extension speaker if necessary, while running out to the board, and I get consistent tones wherever I play...as long as it’s a “decent” board.

I’m sure others may have different needs/wants. But for me, the Vox mini heads are the perfect solution.

Regardless of your choice, trying new gear is half the fun. Enjoy the process
