m20s and what?

I plan to buy Revel m20s and am thinking either a Musical Fidelity A300 or Rotel RB 1070 (around $800). I also have no clue what kind of cables ($75-150) or CD player ($500-600) to get. This will be my first higher end audio system and I would like to do the Revels justice as much as my wallet will allow. I'm looking to spend around $3000.00 for the whole thing. I like the neutrality of the m20s so I don't think that I will change that part of the set up. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

thx!

HI!

I don't know about amplification but I'll put my two cents in on a CD player. The Music Hall CD25 and Arcam CD-73T are both excellent players and great recommendations. I have owned both. Another overachiever is the Cambridge Audio Azur 640C, which I also owned. Of the three I feel the CD25 was the least detailed and the Arcam the most detailed but on the analytical side and perhaps a bit lean in the bass. I feel the Cambridge presented the best balance overall and that it is a great bargain in audio. I preferred it to the Rega Planet 2000 that I owned.

If you can and want to spend more, consider the Consonance CD-120 (another overachiever). It is better than those above.

Have fun!
