Choosing a CD or SACD player over my Oppo BDP 95

Greetings! This is a branch off of an earlier thread. I am considering an dedicated cd and/or sacd player as un upgrade over my Oppo BDP 95 universal player. Consensus seems to be that this will provide "better" red book playback which is 95% of my listening. As it is nearly impossible to do live listening comparisons where I live, I ask my fellow ’Goners for their input and suggestions. My system consists of said Oppo, Magnepan .7’s and Parasound Halo integrated.
Thanks!

Well, I made a command decision this morning and snagged a mint "lightly used" Oppo BDP105 on Ebay (I know) for $860.00. It seems to be a solid deal and I admit to liking the multi-functionality the Oppo's provide. Less connecting, space taken up etc. I do appreciate the fine input given by all. I figure by selling my BDP95 the net expense to "upgrade" is minimal.

seikosha, I had heard that as well. Then I talk to people who swear the 105 sounds more refined. I guess I'll find out soon, thanks for the input. If anything, I'll have the latest...
