Don't ya rile 'em.....
From personal experience I know exactly where you are coming from. If you want to keep what you have which is a great record playing system and enjoy CD's in a similar way, you could try the following:
1) buy a non-Naim CD player. Something with a valve front end such as Unison Research or something really analogue sounding such as a Bel Canto.
2) Get some Rothwell attenuators to reduce the input voltage into the NAC72

Hi Everyone
I am new to (PF) and enjoying reading the posts - As my title suggests i have a dilema regarding what direction to take with my Pre amp
Background
I used to own Lp12/ekos/troika/lingo - many years ago with my 72/hicap/250-Kabers- Fabulous
Added Cd3.5 - disappointing
Have parked my stuff for the past 7 years and now want to get back into it !
With the 72 pre i find it sounds better with vinyl -(Can it sound Wonderful with CD ??? -Do i keep it??)
Recently i purchased CDX2/ Teddy Xps (Nice- especially the Teddy - What a difference).
Taking into consideration that i now want a predominately CD based system - options that i am considering are
1.Service all amps (Overdue 20years +)
2.Keep 72 - purchase NJ boards -(My 72 has no CD input using Tuner) -Any other recommended modifications ?
3.Replace Hicap with Teddycap _ which one (Can 72 run with Teddy SC?)
4.Bite the bullet and purchase 282 or 52 (again which one will sound better with CD )- Would prefer to do this option in future!! -(Presently Skint)
My music tastes are varied Rock/ Pop /Classical
Any Info appreciated
Many Thanks
Brian
