Love your sense of humor!
S.E. amps have no common-mode rejection, so any distortions introduced into their simple circuit gets amplified.
The reason a good one sounds so good is that the builder has learned to minimize adding distortions into the circuit, and the fact that since S.E. can't reject common-mode, it also can't reject parts of music.
Aluminum on aluminum isn't so bad-- that's OK, the resistance will generate heat and some magnetism when current flows thru the resistive element.
It's better to isolate this as best you can.
