It's easier to excuse a lack of detail if you aren't aware that it exists in the recording. Once you know it's there, it becomes much harder for your brain to continually "fill-in" the missing detail.
Some music loses its appeal without those low level details or transients.
I am quite fond of both tubes and transistors, but I certainly prefer certain music through SS and other music through valves.
