Check out www.pioneerelectronics.com as they have several SACD players for sale at great prices. I have the lest expensive one, on sale for $230, and it was a significant improvement over my blu-ray and 6 disk changer. There are several other options, but they all seem to have good reviews online.

I might be able to save enough to also pick up a blu-ray player.

Why not spend $60 on a Sony 595? Think of all the software you can buy with the savings.

For a number of years I used a Music Hall CD25 with a Marantz 2240 receiver and like the pairing a lot. The 25.2 CD player is available these days for $350 or so, new ($600 list). A new version of the player is being introduced.

Wait a minutes, Yates! You say you want a good CD player for $500-$1000. The oppo BDP-83SE is available directly from Oppo for way less than $1000. What are you waiting for???
