Help Needed: Is my system balanced?

I have just bought a new system, part of the equipment is used, and I am uncertain if I made the right decisions. My problem is to define ideal percentages to be spent in each component. My system is the following:

Arcam DIV A80 Integrated Amplifier ($1300)
Naim CD5i cd player ($1600)
B&W DM602 S3 Loudspeakers ($600)

Do you think these three equipments match? Are they compatible? Will I get the most from their potential? Should I have bought more expensive loudspeakers and a less expensive CD player?

Is there a simple, definite rule to determine which percentages of the total investment should go to each equipment? What does the literature on this subject tells us?

I think if you frequent your local hifi shops you will want to upgrade a whole heck of a lot faster than that...I started this hobby about two years ago and have gone through more than one pair of speakers...Take a look at my system now...I started with the B&W 602 S3's too!

Take care,
Ben
