I've been using naim audio since 1995 with Nait1. I bought the 552 first and then the 500 after about a year. The combination of the two felt like a mixture of original naim sound and American sound.Did the dynamic increase over the non-dynamik version? When I listened to the non-dynamik version, it sounded too flat and no energy compared to the naim sound. It was doubtful whether power is 500W.
Perhaps the sound of Naim has changed with the stream of times.
My personal favorite combination was a 552 and a chrome or olive power amp. The 500 certainly had a wider bandwidth than its predecessors, but not a real Naim sound.
