RE: Some advice? Left Naim, tubes aren't working and McIntosh is a dissapointment

I'm not familiar with those speakers but didn't suspect anything, if the person can notice amp "warmup" then he is in tune with his system and it must have decent resolution.

I didn't really become aware of warm up until I owned Conrad Johnson tube gear, it took 30 to 45 minutes to hit it's tride. Prior to that I had some decent gear including Krell. After the CJ I had Pass Labs where I noticed warm up and my Levinson is the same but not to the extent the CJ or Pass was obvious. Either these amps need the warm up or the CJ was so obvious I became aware, or more acute to what to listen for.
