Measure carefully and perhaps your hypothesis is correct. As Wayne suggests tonal neurality is, or at least should be, a design goal. But there are so many changes that can be made to influence the "flavor": chokes, capacitors, additional filtering, volume controls, tube-rolling that the end product can be very different sounding than the original design.
