Well you might be right . Since the second one is the real amp it might be the real speaker as well. A moving speaker has a "living impedance".
Wow, I'm very impressed. This has just about sold me on the Axe FX II, no way you could distinguish this in a recording...
I believe the only difference is the movement of air. The breakup characteristics are similar, but you can hear the "room" more in the second clip. Even then though, I had to wait for the final results to make my decision. I would be curious to hear this same test with the Axe -> PowerAmp -> Cab vs the 50 watt Plexi to the Cab, I bet its even closer to the same.
Next feature to tackle is the modeling of how the movement of air creates and affects sound in more detail. I imagine this would take some processing power.
