What speakers do you have?
Sugden Mystro drives my Thiel CS1.6 speakers like there is no tomorrow.
I have tried the naim nait 5i before and can say the mystro drives equivalent or little bit better than the naim. Both 50w/ch @ 8Ohms. (Thiels is a 4 Ohm load).

I have Spendor A5 . It requires a lot of power , ideally i think it requires 100+ Watts . Lot more dynamic when I tried with top of the line symphonic line integrated and Cyrus seperates.

I am not sure if Sudgen would pair better. But some vouch for Sudgen Mystro + Spendor combination and i see some folks use it with Spendor A6 which is even harder to drive . Looks like more natural sound compared to Naim

Can you PM me the price you paid for the Sugden Mystro

Natural or not, the sound is completely non-fatiguing. HF is present but never hurting (which is not the case with naim or Roksan I tried).

The sound is "thick" and "syrupy" as opposed to thin and lean presentation of musical fidelity, cyrus etc.

I too doubt if it will fit the Spendor sound signature. It may end being too much of a good thing and you might miss the top end completely.

I think it fits the likes of Thiel, Monitor Audio, Paradigm, proac kind of speakers, If you get what I mean.

PMed the price.

Thanks . Got the PM .

Spendor A5 seems more modern , Infact it is slightly on the brighter tone howeverit is not really harsh . It is more towards the neat acoustics but not as bright as proAc. Never heard a thiel before .
I liked the classical spendor better. I have to change the cabling and source !! DragonFly was the perfect source for me earlier , but no more ...Hmmm a lot of work .

I bought a newer model Naim 5Si which i will get receive this month end . Will run it for couple of months to see if things get settle down , otherwise try with Sugden .
