Need help Cary CD-308 or Naim CD5i

I looked at this DAC previously and while I think it sounded fine in an all Naim (save speakers) system, in my system it sounded too dark. I have not done a comparison to the Naim, but the Cary 308 is a nice player, the 308T even better, but a few hundred dollars more if I recall.
