Even something as apparently unarguable as "lower

"better sound"; indeed, there are companies making good money selling
devices specifically designed to introduce distortion of various kinds,
devices which wouldn't be used unless _someone_ thought the resulting
sound was better than the un-distorted sound. My own power amp even
includes such deliberate distortion capability.
It also depends on the music played. The only thing that seems to be
better with modern
digital recording is sound effects and synthiszed music, Most music may
loose a lot in compression
and digital conversion. I like my amp becuase it seems 'transparent' to
the my hi-fi music
or computer games or DVD's..
