CD/SACD player Under $4000


Looking for a new player. My Sony XA5400 won't play sacd's. Tried a new laser assembly but still won't play sacd's. Like to find something at least as good as the Sony. Does not need to be a network player. Open for suggestions!

Are there any fan of the technics SLG700? The original, not mk2? I bought it used for $2K on tmr. The network player option is … horrid. But the CD and SACD playback is brilliant. I prefer it to the Marantz SACD 30n, too ($3.5K). And idk why! 

I'll throw in another endorsement for the Denon A110.  It has been flawless in performance, and I've been unable to better the sound of the analog out with any DAC I've tried.  The screen is pretty weak, but it's a purpose built design with minimal features beyond SACD and a nice remote.
