Hmm, are you trying to record or just trying to decide on a pickup for open mics? If the latter, then how it sounds in headphones or recorded is irrelevant. All that matters is how you sound thru an amp or PA. The PA at the open mic will sound different from yours, and you likely won't have any effects on. Some open mics won't even let you bring your own preamp/DI. If you're trying to dial in your sound for an open mic, I'd use the setup that most closely matches the open mic scenario to evaluate. People won't be listening to you in headphones or hearing the direct pickup sound.

Not sure how true that is, but that is what I am thinking watching those video's. I'm not looking to get a perfect match of my guitar mic'd. Just trying to get a good acoustic sound for open mic's and recording.

Short answer : PA speakers do color the sound. Some monitors are considered the standard for not doing this.
