I have seen the new low price SONY SACD player at the Copenhagen HiFi Show. Release due in June, less than USD 1000. This will bring SACD within many peoples budget.
DVD Audio has a major problem, because the disc cannot play on CD player or DVD players!
DVD Audio has MLP as part of the format, and current DVD players do not have MLP.
So even if you had a collection of DVD Audio disc, you could not play them in your car, or take them to a friends house to play them.
The double layer SACD discs can play on all CD players and DVD players. Even my JVC boombox does it fine.So I think SACD is a safe bet.
