I find that very interesting. To me, #4, while being very detailed and "3D", sounds slightly aggressive in the higher mids on the test sample.

Some other random observations:

#1 has an impact on the transients that I personally don't like. It seems to break up the snare / crossclick a little bit.
#2 'pleasing' sound, has a bit of a smiley curve feeling to it
#3 very lively on transients, detailed, accentuates the mids a bit (very broadly)
#5 changes character in the highs a bit to my ear
#6 feels a bit distant, looking at the song more "from the outside"
