The latest TONE Audio review of Van Alstine SET 400 suggests it is somewhat tubey and forgiving. Since the SET 600 is merely a bridged version of the 400, the sound quality should be similar, although more powerful. The AVA site also describes the SQ of these amps as forgiving. There are plenty of amps with forgiving SQ, so even at $2K for the 400, this is nothing special. I seek accuracy, so I am with Ric Schultz who believes that for comparable money, accuracy can be achieved.
