Best SACD Player Help Needed

I'm interested in purchasing a SACD player and would like opinions on the format as I understand that it is fading. I have a Onkyo CD changer and would like assistance with the forthcoming upgrade. I have Martin Logan SL3s. What should I expect in regards to sound quality with SACD and with an upgrade in CD player? How will my current standard cds sound? Any advice, Suggestions, or website references will be appreciated.

Do you have a budget? What electronics will it be used with?

Buy a reasonably priced used SACD player with good resale value and try it in your system. If it really floats your boat, consider an upgrade.

Find a Denon 2900 here or ebay $150-$200. Well built, plays SACDs sounds very decent. Great transport if you want to use a DAC with it later. Of course it is a good DVD player too. If you want to upgrade from there you can probably sell it for what you paid. My philosphy is to be a late adapter when things are cheaper. (I buy a lot of $1 to $2 albums) There will always be plenty of SACDs for sale new or used. My 2 cents.
