There are plenty more who can comment....but whatever the design it's down to how good it is and how well it's executed. Feedback can work on some amps but it has to be done well.
Without feedback you make the amp less likely cope with some types of loads and it's spec may look poorer but you should gain on harmonic representation, overall feel of air and space without tiring harshness. Horses for courses and a lot depends on your speakers,
