I think its good to use the dbs just to switch it up and you dont need a spot most of the time. But I don't get the same pump as I would with the bb. I agree with the incline, I like it way more then bb incline because of the stress it puts on the shoulders.This. I think a lot of dudes turn to dumbbell presses because they aren't that good at the barbell version. I rarely see full ROM from dude's dumbbell benching. It's a little harder to force yaself to go all the way down, because there's no bar to touch to the chest. Still I need to get back into incline dumbbell benching - I always had fun with that lift.
Do you ever do floor presses? I would love to do them, but I don't have the right rack to do them at my gym, Ive tried to do it with dbs but it not the same. I think it helps a lot with increasing your max.
Ive thrown some bands on there before to switch it up but Im not sure of their weight resistance.
