RE: I don't think so

Jack G, this is why they make different kinds of gear, not everyone likes the same sound. lol I Had an Audio Research LS-8mkII with an Audio Research VS55 tube amp and I thought it sounded terrible, and yes I did all kinds of tube swapping, then sold. lol

I have a feeling you would have loved the sound of it and that's all good, if everyone liked the same thing how boring would that be? lol

For me, the Cronus is excellent and I still have the stock tubes in! My speakers are Vienna Acoustic Haydn Grand as well to give more of an idea to what it's matched with. I can see how other people with different taste in sound would not appreciate it as much as me though, to each their own!
