RE: naim nait 5i-2

I owned this amplifier for a while. I liked it, in an all-Naim system (Allae speakers). Any 'warmth' or fullness in the sound I would tend to identify with the amp/speaker/room interface, not with whether the amplifier uses tubes or solid state.

FWIW, I've never heard anybody say Naims have a 'tubey' sound.

However, the 5i-2 to my ears is not an 'analytical' sounding amplifier either, but like I said, it depends on the rest of the system too.
