Reprising an old thread about tonal qualities

Sorry, couldn't find a particular thread despite an extensive search.

Based on my experiences - and my current system - do you guys agree?

Creek Evo II - neutral

Arcam DIVA range - neutral/smooth

Leema Pulse - smooth/warm

Naim Nait 5i - [:S]

Rotel - smooth/neutral

PMC - smooth/warm

Monitor Audio RS6 - smooth/neutral

These are just a few examples on my current source(s) and speakers, may not reflect their true tonal balance.

You have Arcam and Rotel as smooth/neutral - while I understand where you're coming from, I think the Rotel would be better described as 'brighter side of neutral'.

PMC smooth/warm? I think the bass balance varies with different models, but generally, I'd agree. Not so sure about smooth though, I find their treble quite prominent - not bright or harsh, just, prominent.

Monitor Audio RS6 to me would be warm/bright.
