Single mic, dual or multi mic mix IRs for live use?

Just wanted to know what kind of IR you guys use for live use (meaning when you play and listen to yourself at rehearsal, at home etc.). Single mic'ed IRs? Dual mic'ed? Multi mic mixes? Whatever sounds best?
And why do you use them?
I can't decide what I like best. I'm changing my mind on a regular basis. Right now it's mostly mixes.

Disclaimer: I know there's no "best" way. I'm just curious.
 
Single mic sm57, just because that's what I'm used to.
I've had good results with the multi-mic IR's that come stock in the Axe Fx as well, but generally I stick to what I know from "real life."
 
I use 5153 red for my basic live tone and the 5153 mix2 as main cab ( all the fx are set mono) ...... out 1 to foh out 2 left to frfr out 2 right to iem system...... happy with the results :)
 
Yeah even I would recommend a single SM57 live for most guitar tones. You don't want the low end rumble. You need a lot of natural cut and that's what the SM57 excels at.
