I have the exact same setup. Never looked back. I don't play in a band but the EV spkr (or really any full range powered spkr) can easily keep up with the guys I sometimes jam with. With plenty of headroom. I've for me my favorite amp right now is actually the digi modern sod. Adjust the gain as needed and I'm set. Tiny bit of grey comp in fx1. Mild flanger in fx2. Univibe in the mod block. Ownhammer scumback H ( live vintage). Best sound I've ever had.
