I don't buy into amp "sound" either, aside from perhaps the flawed-by-choice 8W home audio tube amps of the world that make their money off of the "warmth" the clipping produces. I hate retail audio snake oil.
Genesis amps are built so well. You're buying for the build quality more than sound. I'm pretty much sold on ARC in that regard, very well built amps, priced pretty reasonably for what components you're getting.
