DI Profiles and flat eq's

I was just running through some DI Profiles by a few different profilers and it seems that most of the EQ's were set perfectly flat and to get a good tone I had to alter them pretty heavily. Is that a recommended procedure? I would think it's better to get a good eq'ed sound before profiling so we didn't rely heavily on the Kemper eq which probably behaves nothing like the real amp's eq.

Actually does the kemper even try to capture where the eq was like the gain level? I notice some of the non DI profiles i was playing (and haven't modiifed did not have "flat" eq settings). On any note, most of my DI profiles do not have much bass when i compare with the same cap and a real amp.
