Um, I bought it on ebay to replace my crummy old DVD player and, er, have never actually played a disc in it. I got it for DVDs and the odd SACD/DVDA; I never watch DVDs, rip DVDAs (both of the ones I own!) and, frankly, my system sounds good enough on red-book so I haven't bothered trying SACDs yet. Therefore I am not the best person to give you the advice you seek - sorry!!
