Cab Shootout: HELP NEEDED!

I heard cab 1 and thought "that sounds great", then I heard cab 2 and thought "that's a lot better than 1". No need to be a Mesa fanboy I guess. In this particular shootout I'd say the Engl sounds better and bigger.
 
Cab2 for SURE! I think it fills up and glues the mix together WAY more. Reminds me of the old Fear Factory tone but BIGGER.

What amp and boost?

Cab1 sounds like everything else out there TBH and doesn't strike me as 'WOW, SIQ TONE D00D"

EDIT: Cab1 would be way easier to seat in a mix than cab 2, though. FML
