Differences in sound profile between Naim eras?

Colouration and why we all like it

I was recently at a local pub when a young girl came in and set up to play an acoustic performance for a birthday. This is not a normal pub, it is a small local brewer that operates out of an industrial unit with a really nice backdrop that looks out on to cane fields. The setting allows for 3/4 big roller doors opened up and is just awesome on a nice sunny day. Turns out this location is great for sound. Anyway the point is… the sound produced by this performer was amazing! It was warm, wholes…

fwiw another member mentioned how street performance remind him of Naim system. That ‘warmth’ and ‘rawness’ in music in real life.
