AFAIR they were discussing with Dave in Tone-Talk, that BHG youtube demos of are mixed with reduced treble on the request of Dave, due too many mongols listening on phone and tablet speakers and forming and opinion based on that. Like washing hands in gloves and making comments on the soap.
A lot of people will be disappointed, because nobody uses even a 50w on 10, maybe into a load.
You really can't win. Everyone wants to hear a raw guitar sound, no processing, but no one actually likes a raw guitar sound. EVERY guitar sound on every good sounding record is affected in the recording or mix. If you talk to famous mixers from 70's, 80's, 90's, etc. there's always something going on.
You know what REALLY sounds great, is a distant mic, away from the cab in the room, then pounded with a heavy multi band EQ and compression that rolls off highs and lows and optimizes the sound into the pleasing vocal range. Those iPhone recordings are the fakeboobs of guitar mic'ing!
I'm not hating on that.
This is the first time I've added significant reverb to the sound. That changes the perception of brightness and presence for sure. Thankfully there are EQ knobs on the amp, so if someone wants to turn it into a slicing razorblade attack of bee's, that option is in there.
The master volume is really really terrific on this. Low volumes sound great. The Ch1 Plexi does come alive on loud loud setting, but I like hitting it with a pedal just the same. It get's me into a very similar territory. When I'm at home, I can't turn my 20w MiniDS past 1.5, so... loud is loud.

This reviewer guy’s weird facial ticks and gestures while playing always reminds me of:
