Best SACD/CD player

I know I'm old school, but at this late date, December 2015, what's the best spinner that will do both CD and SACD, under $10k

Short list so far is Exoteric K-05X, Marantz SA11-S3 and I don't know what else.

The Ayre goes through a Parasound JC 2 to JC 1 mono blocks to KEF 107/2s; the Sony and Oppo go via HDMI through a Bryston SP3, the front LR of which is passed through the JC 2 to access the JC 1s. Of the three, only the Ayre makes CDs sound great.
