Sony NS500V. Buy a used one for 150.00 (or less). Not bad stock, but have Matt Anker (SACDmods.com) do the mods for 330.00, and you will have yourself a surprisingly competent CD/SACD player for less than 500.00. Richard Kern also offers a mod path for the NS500V as well. I have listened to both the 500V and its replacement 755. The stock 755 has better DVD image performance, but IMHO the 500V beats it hands down for sound.
