Thankyou Timo!
I actually sent an e-mail to access regarding this issue and they were nice enough to respond within a few hours.
I think sharing this would be fine:

The difference here are solely the D/A converters, which very obviously got way better over the years, when you compare the D/A converters in a Virus "a" to a Virus b to a Virus c and now the Virus TI models.

I guess it's a myth busted!
It would be nice to hear how big of a difference the AD/DA converters play though. But I can't imagine it being that big. One thing that may also contribute is that it's said the later models have a hi-boost on the presets, which may confuse people. Not sure if that has any merit though.
Anyway this is good enough for me, I think I will be getting the snow.
