RE: Please try to explain what "dark and natural" might mean...

Tricky.Explained above in my 12:05 post.Sometimes,a lack of overtones,i.e. higher frequencies can create an illusory feeling of balance and neutrality.Sometimes having more overtones present will convey fullness of tone,hence subjectively darker,and more neutral and natural.Not easy to differentiate between the 2,and my guess is that,the first sometimes I mentioned has gotten the upper hand in mosts quests for good sound at home.But Marantz 1s,2s 5s and eights with the right speakers and equipment,command the prices that they do for a reason.Used with the right tubes and caps,they do not roll off in the highs.
