SACD player that will read the SACD layer

I have had poor luck with SACD/CD players that will default to the redbook layer and not read the SACD layer.

Please share with me any experience with a player that will nearly always read the SACD layer.

Thanks

It's a slower worker, sometimes taking up to 10 seconds to recognize the sacd but had never missed it.

Odd, I picked up a very cheap Pioneer player just to see if it would read the SACD layer of a hybrid disc...and it did. I think I just need to be able to spend more money for a more current player.
