Time For a CD Player Upgrade

I've been using a Rega Saturn Mk 2.  I recently upgraded my turntable to the Mark Levinson 5105 w/ the Ortofon Quintet Black S.  In comparison my CD's are sounding overly bright.   Any thoughts on a comparable upgrade to my CD listening?  My budget is about $4000-5000, new or used.  The Hegel Viking looks interesting.  Any recommendation for an upgrade will be appreciated.

Melloshifi you can get Marantz SACd player. The Ruby Marantz SAcd player is excellent on SACD or redbook.What cables are you using?

OP if you have not bought a player. By all means don’t buy used. Lasers do break.

Pindac great post. My SA 10 marantz player laser gave up with no warranty. Marantz service after warranty does not exist. I got very nervous because Iam not sure if the laser is still available? And can I even find tech to do it? Luckily the Agoners here guided me where to get the laser , and and tech.
