SACD or not

I have a question regarding SACD format. I am looking to replace my CD player and noticed some CD players have the ability to process SACD and some do not.  I have never heard this format and was wondering if I should consider this in my purchase. My purchase price is in the $1400 range
I know people will question why I am using CD at all. That is another discussion for another time. I still like some physical media in my listening experience. 
I look forward to your comments

Once I had acquired over eighty SACD's, I began to feel the need to have an SACD player in reserve, and replaced a Marantz SA-8004 with a Denon DCD-A100.  It was a nice step up--for redbook as well as DSD playback.

I started out being excited about SACD per se, but came to believe that mastering quality matters more and it is the combination that excels above all.
