I'm delighted for you. Then you have made a good choice.

But unfortunately it is actually the case that there are a lot of more or less useless amps on the market.

I already had well-known amps on my bench and was about to start troubleshooting until the owner told me that all of these types had so much background noise. I don't want to mention names.
It has been something i have experience for a long time. A lot of the amp builders didnt care about it, so they never did anything about it. But they werent playing fast enough i guess to fight for clarity with unnecessary microphonic static.
 
Many have said the modeled Amps, sometimes "improve" on the shortcomings of the real amps, based on historical criticism..

Probably why you hear a tweaked version perhaps ?
It can be too tight even with the modeler if you want

I like a little bit of sag in the tightness.
I still like a bit of "sink into the note" and that's where the balance comes in. Some like it a little more one way or the other. Too saggy you loose response, to tight it becomes much less musical to my ears.

It's worth noting, I use bigger strings than most. So tension is good... which helps keep an amp you might find loose, to me it can still be dialed tight.

I guarantee.

Nobody likes a mercyless stiff amp.

A good amp has to hang on the guitar like a good dog on a leash.
