If You configure everything right, Timidiy sounds _great_ and works well

I agree, TiMidity is good. But _great_ is an overstatement.
Please have a look at:
http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/SYNTH/synth.html
Here you'll find a MIDI file of a bigband song and the
MP3s produced by:
- Hardware synthesis
- TiMidity synthesis
and
- FluidSynth synthesis
All 3 used the same soundfont (8mbgmsfx.sf2).
All three are sampled 44100 Hz
You'll find that only the Hardware synthesis sounds
like a bigband.
BTW: This example also illustrates the effect of the
"attacking" strings in FluidSynth. The strings
are practically inaudible.
