Appreciate the comparative analysis, but to be fair, we need to hear from someone with a recently serviced Nait 2.

Point given!
@HiFiman can do so. Maybe good that mine is not serviced. Also like the colour of nait 2! No plan to sell him, anytime
Give me a few days with the Nait 50 but performance, musical insight so far over the Nait 2 very impressed.

Musical insight describes it very well!
I wonder if the Nait 50 is generally perceived as bright and tonally on the cooler side?
Compared to nait 2 he will be (brighter not bright) - but all the openness and insight / detail comes with it. Had the same effect with ND555 vs ND5XS2 → and ND555 is sooo much better 
What nait 50 is doomed very well is the “pop up-Effect” → some sounds popping forward.
This is one of the things I loved most with naim over the years.
Have you tried the ND555 with the Nait 50
Nope - maybe will some day
Taking him into main system … nait50 instead of 52/Sc/135

Thanks Geoff. The Nait 50 also sounds awesome with an mDAVE connected.

Thanks - have done so. First ever power line used (have spare from 555PS which is on Powerigel).
It is a bit softer… organic - fine !!!

‘Better’?

Powerline? YES - it is. More smooth/ a tad warmer … good advice
The Nait 50 rocks, what an amp. 5 hours none stop I’ve sat and listened, playing Floyd - One Of These Days, wow it sounds fantastic

Very nicely cared for vinyls too. 
I do the same with poly outers.
