Cool glad to hear it would be worthwhile on my system. There are alot of SACD's that i saw that i would like to get. Its to bad that SACD didnt become more maintstream. i asked like 10 ppl i knew today including my father and not one of them had ever heard about SACD

Without a doubt you will benefit from getting SACD on your system. Both the Oppo and Pioneer players would be good choices. Be sure you get a player that can bitstream DSD over HDMI to take full advantage of the SACD format. The only Oppo player that currently bitstreams DSD is the DV-980H. The Pioneer Elite DV-49 will also bitstream DSD over HDMI, so that's another good option to consider.

It's a real shame that SACD didn't succeed beyond being a niche format for audiophiles. It didn't receive the widestream appeal it deserves.

any reason to get the pioneer over the oppo? the oppo is a bit cheaper but i have never heard of them so im not sure if they are a good brand?
