Tweaking parameters for tube poweramp and p.a. sim ON

Tryin' to use poweramp modeling with a tube power amp + real cab (with p.a. off it sound very well but it's not possible to obtain the poweramp overdrive except of turning up volume and damage my ears...), hoping to reduce the double compression (modeling plus real p.a.) tweaking randomly:
  1. SAG and MV to default value, increasing Presence
  2. SAG near to 0
  3. SAG high value and lowering MV
  4. lowering at 0 the Resonance
  5. set to 0 every compression level
  6. increasing Dynamics and/or Depth
but none of those is still giving best result. The sound is well emulated but overcompressed through the tubes.
What I'm missing to reach a more natural sound and don't go back to poweramp sim OFF?
 
SAG at zero takes the poweramp sim out IIRC.

You may wanna try that too. Don't over complicate things.
 
Thank you Kriig, but SAG at 0 (or P.A. Off) gives only a good preamp overdrive without poweramp saturation. There must be a good balance between real and totally virtual sound, to obtain good results with nonMasterVolume Amp Blocks (i.e. Ac30tb or Plexi)
