You only have 150 CDs, which is not a huge collection. I think you would do well with the Sony 5400 which is very good on Redbook, and use the other money to buy some more CDs. With the way people are ripping collections and dumping disks these days, you could get a ton of new music.
But maybe the Sony is not that much better than your Rega Apollo and it would not impress you - although it does do SACD, which you have not mentioned. I like Needfreestuff's suggestion of the EAR or Modwrights. If you could get a used Ayre C-5xe MP for $2700 you would be doing very well.
What is the rest of your system?
