So, I just got some Redwirez impulse responses for my Axe Fx and their website says that they used high end gear like Neve pres to record the impulses. Now, since that is the case, does that mean I don't really have to record through a nice signal chain like that, since it's already been done by them? Like, if I went direct with my Axe Fx and then used an IR in my DAW, would that kind of be the same as actually running everything through a Neve pre and Apogee converter, etc.? Or am I just really off base here?
I've got a noob question on recording with impulse responses.

Hi,
No. The equipment that you use will dictate the quality of your recording.
The equipment they used only impacts on the quality of the impulse response. No matter how accurate that is, the input signal and path still need to be quality.

Well, right now the plan is to record DI tracks through an Apogee Duet into Logic. After that, I was going to go to friend's studio and reamp using Axe fx>API 3124+>Apogee Symphony>Logic.
That's kind of what I figured. Thanks.
Is a photocopy of the Mona Lisa painting anywhere near the real thing?

Yes, but it is not the real thing (keyword here is photocopy).
Yeah, it pretty much is.
It depends how good the photocopier is
