In a way it is subtle, but once you are tuned into it, impossible to ignore. Most equipment is so colored that it may mask the relay colorations. It is also possible to "tune" the rest of the circuit around the coloration of the relay. That is how most people end up with "great" sounding systems - by using "system matching" they get an "impressive" overall sound - but it's like a house of cards. Putting in a better component can often make the overall sound worse as the balance of colorations has been upset.
The above is the important bit IMO/IME. I think many people just don't have equipment transparent enough to realize what the relays do.
