Every filter sounds different even when designed to have similar characteristics (i.e. number of poles).  Evolvers have 4 pole filters and so do Moogs yet the Evolver and Moog filters don't sound at all the same. 

This is a common topic and source of controversy amongst synth fans. A filter that sounds great to one person might sound awful to another...it's very subjective.
