However, I found that if I listened to an amp for a few weeks and enjoyed it and wanted to keep listening versus being slightly annoyed with an amp and not really enjoying it was more than enough of a test.

The best system makes you hear the music, not the equipment. It can take months for your ears to adjust to the sound of a particular amp. An A/B test will mainly let you recognize what you are used to.
