Best Redbook/SACD player for under $1000?


I find myself more and more listening to just music. I currently use the Sony 900V for both DVD's and CD/SACD. I am looking for a dedicated music player. I love SACD but it doesn't have to be multi-channel, just 2 channel stereo is what i prefer. Any suggestions?

You'd be hard pressed to do better than the sony dvp s9000es which can be found used for about $600. Of course you could also then send the unit to Stan Warren in Eugene, OR for a $250 upgrade that could bring sonic improvements upwards of 25% to 40%.

Stan says 25%, a friend of a friend says 40%.

-IMO
What if I could get the new Sony 999ES for the same price as the 9000ES? Do they have the same performance?
