@mbenigni: But the limiting factor here is not FRFR.
It is whether we can embrace the 'recorded' amp sound that was captured and coloured by an SM57 or one of the other usual suspects or not.
What I wanted to say is that I can embrace this recorded amp sound without any problem because I have learned to love this recorded sound and not standing in a room with the amp.
My musical socialisation with these amps was via their recorded tone on recordings that I love.
