Which makes more sense? - CD player vs SACD

Hi, I'm building a 2-channel hifi sysstem around my pair of Harbeth P7ES3. Now I'm using a very modest Philips CD player from 14 years ago.

I intend to upgrade my source in the near future - either a CD or SACD player. FYI, I have a collection of about 70 CDs and don't have any SACD of LPs. BTW, I do plan to get into the turntable in the future.

But I figure I'll need to get a decent CD/SACD player before I get into turntable.

What're your thoughts? Any good sounding CD or SACD player around $1K - new or used, that you can recommend?

Thanks.

Personally, I think you should scrap the cd and sacd thing and go with your choice of music server and DAC. This can certainly sound better than redbook cd from all but the most expensive players, and you can't beat the convenience and fun factor. Not to mention that it is the future of what we do.

In 14 years you have only collected 70 seedees?

This doesn't sound like your hobby......
