Funny you say that but perhaps it explains things.
One of the biggest sonic disappointments I have ever heard was that Rowland integrated. It looked so cool with the massive faceplate and the machine black top plate. I was sure it would sound at least really good just based on cost, reputation and appearance. I set it up in a pretty decent system, turned it on and....the music heard sounded soulless, sterile, boring, almost a compressed sounding presentation. It was terrible. Gave it some time to warm up and it was a bit better but there was no way I could live with that.
