Well recorded vocals actually sound very good with the TC, especially with the help of a great amp (and possibly tubes). Details, breathing, the mouth posture, the placement in the scene are second to none IMO.
The Susvara have a more fleshed out timbre, and a sligthly more forward presentation while retaining most of the technicalities of the TC, which make them more enjoyable and - to my ears - more realistic at the same time. They are also a bit more forgiving than the TC.
The SR1a have an extremely impressive vocals presentation, not only in terms of timbre but also when it comes to presence, as the body of the singer seems like a 3D sculpture in the empty space. Palpability is unique. The tone can be a bit lean but nothing that cannot be adapted to one's taste with some EQ and the right amp.
The Valkyria have a darker tonality than the Susvara, and an even more perceived sense of there-there when listening to both female and male vocals, thus becoming my favorite vocals performer so far in terms of (subjective) trueness of timbre, weight and emotional connection.
