CD player with naim nait 5

I have heard the new planet with a nait
go with the CD5 and a flatcap as soon as possible

Any of the Arcam Alpha series (used) should work great with that Nait. I personally prefer their sound over the Rega CD players. Even the original Alpha One is very musical, and very affordable used. And it should always be worth around what you paid (if you shop around for a good deal), so it won't be a total loss. A second system later, perhaps? Or, a friend who needs an upgrade?

Ah, those musical Brits...:-)

I replaced a CD 5/Flatcap with a used CDX. No comparison when partnered with my used NAP250/NAC102. I've seen used CDXs for as little as $2350. However, some say you need at least a Nac102 to realize what a CDX can do. I'm not sure. -lars-
