I think good quality Alum comes down to tubing selection & shapes of tubing as that affects the ride
Welds of course are always better if nicely done
That aside for myself the ride difference opposed to steel, Ti or even carbon can be summed up as a sense of urgency
I mean with Alum bikes you step on the pedals & the bike reacts more so. Always felt that way to me from the first time I tried one many years ago.
