Is an OPPO BDP 95 the best cdp/dac under $1k

The Oppo bdp 95 and 105 have received rave reviews for there cdp/sacd playback, but are there other used/new cdp that sound better which can also be used as a dac?

Trickle down technology from Esoteric maybe? http://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/TEACCD3000/TEAC-CD-3000-CD/SACD-Player-w/USB-Input-Dual-DAC-s/1.html Bill

As a universal player, the Cambridge Audio equivalents of the Oppo (same video chipset and transport but with CA's analog stage) aren't a bad alternative but I don't think the CA has DAC inputs though

The OPPO 95 can't be used as a DAC like the 105 can be. I am considering getting the 105 for this very reason. I had not heard of the TEAC mentioned by Willland but it looks like it would be a very good choice if video/BluRay is not required.
