Best $500 combo player


I'm in need of a new cd/dvd player. I'm primarily a "2 channel" purist, but do need the dvd functionality for one or two movies a month.

Are there any respectable combo players out there for a reasonalbe price? Say $500 new? I am leaning towards the Phillips, but wonder about options like the new Cambridge. Is the Phillips going to be replaced soon?

Any other ideas?

Many thanks,

It may be off your budget, but would worth throwing some extra $100 for Rotel RDV 1080.
