I've always noticed that Q*Bert in an original cab has a nice, analog crunchiness that's missing on PC speakers. Not sure if it's the speakers or amp in that case, but I've played a number of them, and they all seem to have it. Sadly, it's been 7-8 years now since I've seen a cab that also had a working pinball kicker.
