I think As I Lay Dying and Bullet for my Valentine are very much equal in their breakdowns in balance with their guitar solos.
I personally prefer prog metal, but of course, it's all personal preference.

+1 The 6505 is wat peavey renamed the 5150 after EVH left their endorsement deal. EVH has always owned the rights to the 5150 name. But the 6505 is the exact same as the 5150 the same goes for the 5150 II is the 6505+.

That makes a HUGE difference on feel and sound sir! I've been playing on Dropped C and 1 step down tuning since ages and it fits many genres, not just core and metal. That extra bass is so tasty...

As far as tuning goes, all that really matters is to play in a tuning that feels right to you. It has no dictation on heaviness - Lamb of God plays in regular drop D, yet their album Sacrament is dark and heavy as ****. It's basically just phrasing etc.. That determines heaviness. On the flip side to LoG, a lot of pop punk is in C std or around there. Doesn't sound heavy at all.
For my solo work (prog death), I use C std, solely because that is a tuning I personally resonate with and love writing/working in. With my band (thrash/prog/djent/ish) we use D std & Drop C. TL;DR it doesn't really matter. Stop complaining about tunings one way or another. As for something actually relevant, the 6505+ is way more versatile than the 5150/6505 because of the separate EQs. No idea what that guy was smoking who said the opposite. And on another note, the Ultra is passable replacement for the 5150, the Ultra Plus not so much. At least from what I've actually heard from the amps, the Plus isn't anywhere near as brutal as the regular Ultra. As far as Peavey high gainers go, for metalcore I'd rank them 6505+ > 5150 > Ultra > JSX > XXX > Ultra Plus
