CDP for Naim


I have a Naim system and is it a must for naim Cdp or is there better alternative a cheaper price...eg rega Apollo.

Thanks
hi5
it is a must(i think there's a law)...the whole naim sound is based on synergy(the 'whole' being greater than the sum of the parts)....the players are great, especially with other naim gear. good luck
My experience is that Naim CD players fit into non-Naim systems much better than non-Naim CD players fit into Naim systems.

Note that the Rega players have a very different sound from Naim. As a whole, the Naim players lean towards fast and lean. The Rega players have a warm forgiving sound that is quite unlike anything else. It's all a matter of taste.

My comments are based upon the Planet and Jupiter. I haven't heard the Apollo yet. I own a CD5i.
