That's a personal choice I won't make. I've heard equipment I actually like the sound of, but I know it's lying to me, so won't use it.
Valve equipment is a case in point, can be very attractive sound, all that lovely 2nd harmonic, but not for me.

Serge,
If I believed in such things I'd swear you were my old buddy Julian Hirsch come back to haunt me. Even though I disagree with him now on many things audio, I still appreciate and admire his unwavering commitment to the prime directive - fidelity to the original signal.
Btw, I do mean this as compliment.
regards,
