I'm using Sony SCD555ES and wanna upgrade to a better one. For the range of USD10000, any good SACD player can do well at red book, which close to the grade of Wadia 861, Mark 390s, or Metronome T1-i Signature?

Let's face it: the EMM Labs is said by many to offer the bery best CD performance available, better than the Linn CD12 at a lower price. What more can you ask for? Viel Spass!
FYI: HP mentions on p.111 of the June/July edition of TAS that the Philips DVD-963SA (modified by Meitner) could be used as the SACD transport if you can't find a Philips 1000. You can buy a discounted new 963 for $400! Bruce
