That would be correct IMHO.
I've also owned a pair of Neat Elites SEs. Now, with its ribbon tweeter you'll get that detail you're looking for but not that expansive soudstage or 3D imaging.They were not designed for that.
Dont know anything about the Motive line.

If you're looking to spend $500 to $750, may i suggest a used pair of Vandersteen 1Cs. Get the idea that these Vandys slow or warm out of your head especially when driven by a Nait 5i. The Vandersteen 1cs will give you the audiophile qualities as well as get your foot tapping. Just a little light in the bass. it could be due to the naims leaness in the area. I still own a pair but its now doing HT duty.

PS: Get yourself a proper CD player :^) A Naim CD5 with a flatcap later on would do you well
