I was planning on and still will probably buy a Fryette 2:50:2 to go with the Ultra I am getting. However before I do I want to understand the wedges a bit more. I have 2 Mesa 4x12 Traditional cabinets which is another reason I was thinking of going with the power amp because of the cost of the Wedges, then I realized I needed to factor in the fact they are powered and so I could rid myself of the 2 4x12's and the Fryette.
So on to my questions. If this is the wrong sub forum to post this in I apologize.
1) Are the Wedges for me on stage only and the second output of the Axe FX goes to FOH, or do you Mic the Wedges like a normal cabinet?
2) Do the Wedges give you the pushing air feel you get with a couple of 4x12's and a power amp?
3) Do the wedges on a stage point towards the guitarist like regular monitors or towards the crowd like a guitar cabinet?
4) Since the wedges are tube do they not color the sound the same as a power amp? If so then how do they differ in allowing one to use the cabinet sims and power amp sims where the other scenario does not. (I do realize some use power amps sims even with the full cabinet and power amp as well)
I hope those questions made some sense and I appreciate any input.
