SACD/DVD A and question on receiver

Hi

I have a Vandy HT system, Hsu VTF 2 sub. (2Ce, VCC-1, VSM-1) with Toshiba DVD as source, and Arcam AVR 200 receiver.

I recently listened to SACD (albeit on a top of the line 2 channel system B&W) and the difference was noticeable and significant, so thinking of getting a universal player.

My question is

1. Should I try to get a Pioneer Elite system with iLink to pass through the signal digitally and have the autiomatic set up.

2. Use my Arcam or an upgraded Arcam and have the player do bass management and pass only analog input to my Arcam.

Thanks
