"The Crown DC 300 was an example of an amp that tested great and sounded hard."
But I heard one sound good. Once. So it's possible but what you described was far more typical and I've certainly heard that also.
I keenly remember my first visit to the Reuben H. Fleet planetarium shortly after it opened. They had a zillion channels of horrible sound. After the show we were looking around and I was admiring the Zeiss projector as it was the first one that I'd seen in person. As we were leaving the gal at the door stopped us and asked "was that you looking at the star projector?" and I owned up and was just getting ready to say "but I didn't touch it" when she said that there was a group of donors in the audience who were going to get a tour of the works and would we like to join them?
Well she didn't have to ask twice and it was a lot more fun than the show for me. And when we were in the sound room, there, racked up in the R/H wall were a slough 40? of DC-300's. I smugly said to myself, 'well, that accounts for the sound'...
But them were the days, I just had a HK Citation 12 but most of my friends had Phase Linear 350's and 700's. I was the only one without fried tweeters in my EPI's!
