Axe Fx 2 vs. FX8

Hey guys, Just wondering why some people say that the fx8 is more optimized for the 4cm then the axe fx? I understand that its set up automatically for unity gain but can't you just turn the axe fx volume all the way up and get the same? Also, I feel like with the axe fx in the rack right near...
