I finally saw that review that's mentioned. Basically, the RIAA equalization in play in that amp boosts the bass to lower midrange by 4dB and cuts the upper-midrange to treble by 2dB. So you have a 6dB "lift" toward the bass region -- and that should be obvious on pretty much any recording, because it will make them far more bass-heavy.
That's concerning, but more concerning is the channel mismatch, something we always look at. Good bye proper center image.
The measurements are very telling.
