Older Nakamichi Gear ?? Stasis ??

Hi-

I'd like to get a simple system that is very warm
sounding. I'm specifically looking at older (used)
Nakamichi receivers and CD players. I am thinking
about a Nakamichi RE-2 Reciever with MB-2S CD player
or an SR-4A with OMS-7AII. I want it to be a simple
2 piece system and I want to use just one remote. Now
for my questions...

The SR-4A used a "Stasis" design. The RE-2 did not.
How did this affect the sound? I would think the SR-4A
is a warmer sound based on having a "Stasis" design???
Which model sounded better?

On the CD player side, which sounded better, the OMS-7AII
or the MB-2S ??

Thanks
Tom

Gee.. I remember in the early days listening
to recievers made by Dennon, Yamaha, and Nakamichi.
My impression was that Dennon was very bright,
Yamaha was slightly warm sounding and the
Nakamichi SR-4A was the warmest sounding of the
3 brands. Now their seperates might be bright,
but I know the SR-4A Reciever was not bright at all.
I have no experience with their other receivers like
the TA-3a so that's why I'm asking.
