A CD/SACD player to beat Oppo 105D at similar price range?


My old CD player does not play SACD, so I am looking for an upgrade.
I don't intend to use DVD or Blue Ray.
I might be interested in a port for USB (to play ipod, ...).
Which player would be as good as oppo 105 or 105D in sound? The reason why I chose oppo for comparison is that I once had an Arcam FMJ CD23. I compared it to my friend's oppo 105, and oppo 105 did sound noticeably better to me.
Any suggestion?
thx

Any CD player without audio streaming capability and USB DAC is not worth to buy. An Oppo 105 (D) can do all sort of things in this regard.
It becomes more clear physical media will give up to Hidef audio streaming. And the Hidef music trend is going mobile and more affordable to general public. HiFi music will reside in the cloud server not just in a few of audiophiles listening room.
