CD/SACD Player Recommendation

A few years ago (2000-2004), I owned a Wadia 860x that satisfied my every digital need in spades but I had to sell it for a lack of cash and limited space reasons at the time.

I'm still somewhat cash strapped but have regained some space in the house and would like to get a CD/SACD Player for a new system I'm putting together: B&K 2220 balanced Power Amp and Paradigm Studio 100 (Version 4) speakers.

I realize that a lot of technology has changed since that time and I'm hoping that a (decent to great) unit might be available (new or used) for under $2000.00 that can connect directly to a power amplifier thus negating the need for a preamp (a CD/SACD Player having an on-board volume control). It must play SACD as well as Redbook. Balanced outputs would be a plus but not a deal breaker. If direct connect is not an option at this price point, I currently own a PS Audio PCA-2 Preamp that I would gladly use?

Does such a Player exist at this price point as far as any of you know? Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. If not, I'll re-think my goals.
