Mtbrider,
He might own more than he knows. Many are not labelled as HDCD. Additionally, there are probably more HDCD's than there are SACD's. However, this should not be the sole reason to purchase the player, like you state.
The CD-25 is a very good player. It doesn't have the romance of tubes but is still musical. It does provide very good detail as well. IF playing a HDCD, it is spectacular. I currently own one that was modded by Dan Wright via Response Audio. It definitely takes it up a couple notches from the stock one.
Oh, it does benefit quite a bit by adding an aftermarket power cord.
