I'll have some form of Synergy sooner or later. Had some Randall modular stuff, and an Egnater MOD-50 head that was great. Thinking about the low watt head with built in clean and 1 mod slot.
I love mine. Not sure what sounds you're after, but it sounds great on all realms of the gain dial. I'm most recently playing with the gain structure switch, and digging some of the higher gain settings.

Ed Needler is my rep. He's great to work with, gives me great pricing and service. I wait for him before I buy anything, he does deserves his time off. If you inquire about a product they can store the quote if you're not ready to pull the trigger. or you're waiting for the right piece. Then...
