If you want power section drive, maybe, but if you're after a good sounding, reliable valve amp that has great 80s style crunch there are plenty out there, such as the 5153 or 6505. The 5153 is a bit smaller. Sadly most demos focus on the modern metal tones, but the crunch is just the ticket for 80s slash.
It won't do clean and that sort of crunch at the same time though, so still maybe not ideal.
Also, if you set another channel for boost, yes you might not need the boost pedal - that's a good thing! Less to carry, less to fail, sell it for more money. That's all good.
You like the id amp - why not just get the head version and a 2x12 cab? Plenty of volume, spread and easier to haul around.

Get a decent single channel valve head and a 1x12 and you'll never look back. It's time you got a proper amp to go with those guitars anyway.
I would say it was. The one I tested was almost as loud as a 50W valve Marshall, through the same speakers. (At 4 ohms.)
