Need help on a new CD/SACD player

My Marantz SA15 died. The transport/laser part is unavailable. So I need a new unit. Considering the Arcam CDS50 or going with Cambridge CX transport and DAC. I am new to streaming so forgive the ignorance. 1200+ CDs so not ready to go full streaming but it might be a nice addition.

My system is all tube and I have a Michell Gyro dec for analog.

Any suggestions?

SACD is not a deal breaker. Was wondering how the Cambridge CX player and DAC sound as there are very few reviews.

The local shop sent it to Marantz. They said no parts available.  I would love for them to be wrong.

I want to spend less than $1200. I can get the Arcam for $1100.

Yes, and has some basic streaming capabilities.

I think I am going with a used Naim player and a Bluesound node.

Thank you to everyone on the forum for the great suggestions (as always).

if I can find a transport for the Marantz, it will be for sale here soon.
