For the OPs purposes a 'straight' amp might be simpler to use.
I would buy one for myself except for one important issue (at least it's important for me) and that is it has no patch namimg facilities without which its 128 patch memory is virtually useless for live gigging because you can't remember which patch is where.
I'm hoping Blackstar will add patch naming that is well lit and easily visible on the floor controller in a mk2.
Actually it's because I have my computer in my workshop. Right now I am waiting for an old amp to warm up on a Variac...
I'm always amazed when people say this. A neodymium speaker saves at most about 4lbs from the weight of a 12" speaker, even if you start with one with a larger magnet than the stock HRD speaker - I would guess more like 3lb for that one. In a 45lb amp, that can't make much more than a psychological difference, even if you're very sensitive to small weight changes in things you're very familiar with.
I've never heard one I liked the sound of either, at least for guitar. It just doesn't seem like a good trade-off to me.

Even an average weight speaker such as the G12M Greenback is 7.9lbs i.e. 4.2lbs heaver than the Neo. In a 2x12 a weight saving of 8.4lbs isn't to be sniffed at...although in a 1x12 I agree its probably not a lot.
