Cambridge CD500se as good as Planet 2000??


I am building a new system, and would greatly appreciate advice.
I can get good deals on both of my prospective CD choices, the CD-500se ($300 US) and the Planet 2000 ($600 US), both of which I've heard good things about. Is the Rega noticeably better? Worth twice the price?
The rest of my system is:
Rega Mira integrated
Totem Model 1 Sig.
Kimber 4TC/ Silver Streak

I listen to some of everything, but mostly Jazz, acoustic folk/pop.

Thanks for any informed advice.

The Rega is different, a little more laid back. A friend was able to demo both players in his home and bought the Rega. The D500SE is still a very good $400 player.
