A poorly designed amp can destroy timing, this has been covered many times here by many members if you check.What a stupid thing to say, at no point did anyone say that.
No, timing isn't a gimmick. The idea that certain amplifiers are required to preserve it certainly is. More importantly, speaker placement and the way they work in a room will be of hugely greater significance provided the amplifiers are not being used out of spec or are broken.
Think of it like a guy taking a photo of a scene on his mobile compared to a professional photographer, he sees things in the scene the amatuer can't, lighting, focus etc etc..the amature is not up to the task. Same scene, different end.
