This question has no meaningful answer - whether amplifiers sound
different (as many designers, manufacturers, salesmen and magazine
scribblers would have you believe) or not is not the point;


*Who's* "point"? It may be your point, it certainly isn't mine.



Who cares?


it's whether or not they *appear* to, to you. Like a distant oasis in a
desert - it's not a case of it being real or a mirage, but whether or not
you can *see* it.


So as far as you are concerned a mirage is just as good as a real oasis,
just as long as you can *see* it!



Sure, if all you want to do is look at it; the illusion falls apart if and
when you want a drink - which is a bit like wanting Bjork's autograph after
listening to one of her recordings in your own room.

(Or the Chipmunks, Spice Girls or Micky and Griff or whoever else it is you
listen to....)
