A friend swore by Naim and had the top of the range amplification at the time (lots of money), driving the original Acoustic Energy AE1 speakers (ouch!). He thought they were the best, but unfortunately for him, he was given a home demo of Mark Levinson CD player and amplifiers. He was not quite the same after that. Eventually buying the ML CD player, ML pre/processor and (again after a home demo) ATC SCM100a speakers. I reckon he was about 50 grand light afterwards. It all sounded quite nice though.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
