It was either the Shure V15 RS I bought new from Radio Shack in 1985, I think for less than a replacement stylus for the V15 III I was using; or an Oppo DV-980h I bought in 2015 for $85 shipping included just to see if I'd like SACDs. Turns out I do! DVD-A, too; and a few of the CDs I already owned had HDCD layers and I never noticed.
I still have 2 V15 RSs and use them a lot. The DV-980h has been moved to my den system and replaced by a BDP-95 in the main system.
