Your logic is what's flawed. You don't seem to understand the difference between a necessary condition and a sufficient condition. I described one aspect of a speaker' design where the A5s were well done. I did not make a statement that that was the only measure of a good speaker. You never want a cabinet to produce sound separate from what the drivers and ports produce. Making rigid cabinets is the usual way to minimize colorations from cabinets. Minimizing colorations is a necessary condition if you want "stuff like clarity, imaging, centering, precision, freqnency response, tightness in bass". Your essential point about the dali speakers and a NAD amp seems to be that "you can buy used components for less than they cost new and get more value". A valid point.
