Best SACD player $1,000-$1,500 Range


Im looking for the best audio only cd and sacd player new or used from $1000-$1500. It will be used with an Arcam avr300 and Martin Logan Summits. There are a few marantz in that range but someone told me sony makes the best sacd players. Is there any truth to this? Any input will help.

Audio Advisor is selling the Parasound Halo D3 for $999.99 on clearance. Balanced outputs and all. Fantastic deal, even if just for SACD.
Mrtennis....wow, I literally must have grabbed the last one.....it was shipped on Dec. 24. Hopefully, the sound on SACD is all that I've hoped for. The few blurbs I've read online about the player stated that it is excellent for audio/music, but only so so for video. Probably not much difference between it and the D200 except for aesthetics and the balanced analog outs.
