CD-Receiver Recommendations

I intend to purchase a CD-Receiver for a one-box solution to drive my Verity Taminos. The system will be set up in our Dining Room and will be played at low to moderate levels. Redbook CD playback is the focus but a good FM tuner would be a bonus. I believe I need at least 50 wpc into 8 ohms. Full remote control is essential. The only unit that I have auditioned is the Naim Uniti; it is excellent albeit expensive at $4250. Would appreciate learning about other options that meet the above criteria at all price points. Many thanks in advance.

Arcam Solo Movie 2.1, and as with the Solo Movie 5.1 you get SACD, DVD-A and HDCD decoding. 65WPC. I regret selling mine.

Great feature I fell in love with: it has a built in alarm clock so you can wake up to your favorite FM station or CD.

Just to close the loop on this thread, I purchased the Naim Uniti and installed it today. So far, even with modest speaker cable, the performance with the Taminos is outstanding. Thanks to all who offered advice/suggestions.

I had both the Linn Classik Musik and the Arcam Solo. Both are small, easy to use and sound excellent. I have heard the Solo on Verity Reinzi speakers and I was impressed with the sound quality. Be sure to consider the full size Solo and not the "mini" which has only 25 watts. I owned the Linn for quite awhile and it was driving Linn Ninka's and Dynaudio's for awhile. I wish I could have that Linn back and never traded it.
