I only owned Ahh Via Musicom and I totally agree, there's just something a bit too sterile with his production and end result. Though I remember reading the guy had an impeccable ear and was a super perfectionist - as in, he could tell when a battery was starting to lose charge in effect pedals / length of cables based on just playing a few notes. SUPER NITPICKY about his tone, which on one hand was great for establishing a base level of quality, on the other though, it kind of makes everything sound plastic.
