@Veri picked me (the newbie) because I happened to use the infected word "warmth" once, now I'm the bad guy? ;-)
Yes! Lucky you! (I'm sure it's not personal... don't take it that way) The hope is that both you and others can learn from the site, given that it is an Audio Science site. The endless pursuit of the sound described by others, rather than the 'lack' of sound (noise/distortion) predicted through measurements, as a reflection of competent engineering, is one of the ways to keep throwing money away, and what the marketing end of the industry fully counts on.
AB/X it level matched and without peeking, and no matter how many others describe it as warm (or whatever), good luck telling them apart. That goes for most any solid state device, cables, connectors, etc.
