Clearly you are not up to date on the latest research into the impact of electronics distortion on sound quality...say from the mid 20th century onwards!!
Read some of the work by CHeever, Geddes and Crowhurst (from the 1950s and 60s no less). Also note that the problem with amplifier distortion giving a "sound" of its own has been known for a long time and has been the subject of research on and off for a long time now. D.E.L. Shorter proposed that it was the square of the amplitude of the harmonic and even that was found not to be extreme enough such is the non-linearity of perception.
I am sure that the Yammy does NOT produce color free sound at any level. Most of it will be insidious but some things like lifelike dynamics will be obviously curtailed...its just an outgrowth of the design philosophy they use in making their SS amps.
