You don't have to use Naim speaker cables with the Uniti, although it is recommended. That requirement refers more to the classic series amps and older Olive and CB series than to newer designs. I used Transparent Audio speaker cables with a my NAP250-2 for a long time, but at one point I tried an old pair of NACA4 cables and they sounded better. I ended up getting a used pair of Naim NACA5 speaker cables and they sound better yet.

Are you thinking of getting an older Uniti, or the new Uniti 2, which has a bit more power (70W vs 50W @ 8Ω)? These would be a great match for the Contours.
