SACD player for CD

Hey, look, I've got thousands of CDs and I'm more than a little reluctant to start buying the same music, yet again. I'm willing to get into SACD (forget DVD-A, I don't want a video monitor in my listening room so I can figure out what's on) if someone will assure me that a decent SACD player can play Redbook as well as, say, a $1000 stand-alone CD player. How 'bout it? Recommendations?

The SCD-777es used although I think you will have to stretch to around $1400. It is very good on redbook as well as SACD. Forget the Meridian it simply is not as good on redbook as the Sony (SCD-77es) is and on SACD the Sony is in another league. I have not personally experienced any players (SACD) in the $1000 price point; so I can not comment. Just my thoughts
