Are BAT amps kind to less-than-stellar recordings?

This was briefly mentioned in someone else’s thread, but I wanted to draw out people who are familiar with Balanced Audio Technology’s solid state amps to get their 2 cents. I’m most interested in the VK-3000 SE integrated.

I love great recordings as much as the next guy and have plenty of jazz, female vocal, and classical in the collection. My music taste runs the gamut though, and I also love a lot of music that isn’t recorded well. Punk, metal, lo-fi indie, early blues, 60s psychedelia, etc.

Do you think the VK-3000 SE will be forgiving to these genres? I want things to stay relatively smooth, non fatiguing, and not be clobbered over the head with etched detail. Minimal glare, grain, and shoutiness - especially on the top end.

Alternatively (if BAT is too high-brow for low-brow music) I could go for something such as the (cheaper) Belles Aria, Yamaha A-S2100, or LFD LE IV. Those integrated amps are known to have a somewhat "tubey" sound for solid state, that might help round out poorly recorded music?
