I'm considering replacing my Naim (Olive Series) CDX / XPX / NAC52 / Supercap / NAP135 with a Devialet 120 or 200.  Most of our listening is now streamed through SB Touch clients but we have the requirement for occasional CD playback, so I'm wondering what basic but half-decent CD transport I could connect up to one of the digital inputs.  

Obviously, it doesn't need a DAC and - frankly - serious "audiophile" credentials are probably not necessary.  At the risk of appearing sexist, it's mainly for my wife when she just wants to play something I haven't ripped or just wants to load a CD and press <play> rather than fire up the server, wait for it to boot and sync with the various clients, find an i-Thing, load iPeng, mess with wi-fi issues etc. etc.

Does this make sense?  Any suggestions?

Thanks.
