RE: Correlation between amplifier gain, sensitivity and how it sounds?

Thanks guys for the responses.
As I just posted to rkeman above, the amp with the lower sensitivity rating (the more sensitive amp) and high gain does indeed not sound as smooth as the amp with more typical specs. However, in my case the more sensitive amp is a highly rated and very expensive amplifier. I just don't quite like it as well as the other amp in my system. I suspect this may be more about personal preference but I thought I might learn something about correlating specs with sound.
