Need a SACD/Redbook player


I need a CD player recommendation. I have gone back to vinyl but have hundreds of CDs and 30+ SACDs. Many of my recordings are not available on LPs.
My short list:
Modwright Sony 5400
Modwright Oppo 83se or 95.
Marantz Sa-7s1.
Or ?
Trying to keep this under 3k.
I still have a Sony C-555ES 5 disk player for party music but would like a more up to date single drawer player.
Thanks for your advise!

I don't listen to a lot of CD's since getting more heavily into vinyl a few years ago, but do have an SACD collection that gets a fair amount of use. About 10 years ago I bought a Marantz SA-14, it has problems with a few SACD's but I have the Sony C222es for those. In ten years or so of a lot of use, there have been no problems with transport, laser, or anything else. There are undoubtedly other and better one's out there. This one so far has been bullet proof for me, if that helps.
