Note that the cab/speaker/mic selection has as much or more to do with the final tone as the amp/preamp.
In addition I have the Redwirez and OwnHammer libraries of standard IR's if needed.
With all the variables created via cab/speaker/mic/EQ -> Mic/Line Preamp selection and subjective preferences you just need to work with them until you get what you're looking for etc. The beauty is you can do it silently while sitting in your sweet spot, without needing an assistant to move/change your mics out in the studio LOL!

I generally start with whatever came with the amp in question, i.e. open-back Jensen with Fender, open-back Celestion Blue/Silver with Vox, closed back Celestion Greenback style speakers with Marshall and Matchless, closed-back Fanes with vintage HiWatt or Orange, closed back Celestion V30's or 75's with more modern hi-gain stuff, but not always LOL!
Use whatever sounds best for the track you're working on.
I agree wholeheartedly. Ok, let's put it like this: what cab would you typically reach for when recording a Fender Twin? (stock or aftermarket Boutique) I've never owned one, but one of my amps has a Twin-like clean channel.
