The amps are so new its hard to get reputable information on them.

Dude, you are just not getting it.
First, a stack isn't going to be more portable. It's just going to come in pieces. The time it takes to haul that extra combo weight is well worth the time it takes to set up a stack onstage.
Second, the more headroom you have, the worse your amp will sound at low volumes. It simply pushes the desirable dynamic range into unacceptable volume levels. Trust me, the Faustian pursuit of loudness is unbecoming to serious musicians.
I have never had troubles competing with a drummer, and all I use is an AC30.
