Let's try this again: What's the difference between the Sony 400 Disc DVD Players!!!

Model #DVP-CX985V and Model #DVP-CX777ES. The only difference I can find is $400 and one is black the other is silver. I like black anyway One salesman told me that only the ES model plays SACDs but in looking at spec sheets they both appear to. Also, as a rookie I see no differences on the specs. So what's the difference all you experts? I hope I get more replies than I did to my other postings.
