Best <£200 DVD Audio/SACD player - not bothered about DVD Video quality



Hi all,
Given that it'll cost over £600 to upgrade my Arcam DVD player to DVD Audio
(which I can't afford) I'm looking for a SACD/DVD Audio player under £200.
Can anyone recommend a player in that price range with a decent decoder -
couldn't give a toss about video playback to be honest. I'm not after
anything of real audiophile quality - just the best one in that price range.
Of course, if there are any super duper outstanding ones for a few quid more
then please feel free to suggest. Do mags like What HiFi rate players on
DVDA and SACD audio playback nowadays - I've been out of the buying game for
quite some time. I'm considering sticking an audigy 2 in my living room PC
which apparently gives DVDA playback - anyone does this satisfactorily ?

Cheers,
Keith
