Listening on an iPad, neither sounds better... Although I think 1&4 are the same source and 2&3 are the other.
As far as personal preference, I'd pick 1 or 4 as they are a bit less bright to my ears.
FLY BY...This is a comparison between a real Deluxe Reverb and the model. I set the knobs on the model to the same as the amp. I stuck a 57 in front of the amp and captured an IR (didn't even use the Mic+DI method). The mic position sucks but that's not the point of the exercise.
I then played the Rush lick four times. Two times are the mic'd amp, two are the model w/ the IR.

all the Fenders really have benefited from whatever the hell Cliff did to this box/FW.
