I can see Paul's point and would agree with him based on my very little knowledge of electronics, he's not saying the amplifier portion of the receiver is coloring the sound but the pre and processing elements of the receiver can color the sound ... thus the reason there could be a difference in sound between a dedicated amp and a receiver. The above article is only comparing amps to amps, not amp/processors to receivers.
