I don't dig bad brad's clickbait stuff plus Lifeson was a rockstar that used Gibson Lab series for years so I'd say that while he has decent taste in solid state gear, overall, he has shit in his ears. To his credit his ears are probably shot anyways so digital garbage will sound great to him.
Mark my words the day is coming when these digital wonder box makers are gonna screw you over and require monthly subscriptions or no chugga chugga gonna come out the speakers. People are short sighted and are roped in by this digital trash then pissed off when they get screwed by the maker.

Lifeson used Marshall’s, Fenders, and Hiwatts live for many years. He has also used Dean Markley, H&K Triamps, as well as his own sig amp, Lerxst.

That's where NAM comes in. Open source. Make your own profiles and play them on whatever device you want.

His tone has always been shitty, thin, and scratchy, and now he has the perfect gear to capture all those qualities in his live rig.

So then the question becomes how long will those devices allow the open source software to run on them?

Lifeson has always played HK amps - which have a certain undefined/mushiness to them along with a thinner/brash top. Not a fan. If he did switch to digital, I wouldn't blame him, would be way easier for a number of reasons, including not having to lug around that Monster of an amp head that does not deliver tonewise for the real estate it takes up.

Amazingly, digital almost seems less complex to me than H&K amps.

Nothing screams integrity like having your own signature tube amplifier and NOT taking it on the road. I guess they didn't order the road cases in time for the tour...oh wait...

WTF is up with the website design and layout. I saw these amps and thought they had a good tone if I recall but they are super expensive as well I believe. See how simple the head layout is? Nice design on that at least.
Edit: They are NOT super expensive TBH.
Here the Head is for like $2500 - which is up there - but not crazy priced as expected.

The smaller was $1700:

The BEato interview it was said that that company came in to replicate his effects.. Don't blame him for going with an all in one deal in a Box..
However, the complaints on his tone have been critical of the tones thinness and lacks of crystal lettuce..

Alex would have had better guitar tones if his amps had been secretly modded by Jose Arrendondo.

I can't name a SINGLE classic rock/metal artist that started making better (or even equal) music after going all digital.
Not one.
