Best progressive scan DVD player for under 1500???

Have Toshiba 40H80 HD ready 16X9 rear projection tv, and am wondering if someone could recommend the best quality (picture first) DVD player to use with progressive scan output! I don't want to spend more than the TV for a player (tv was $2500 new). How about the Pioneer DV37??? Toshiba's???...Sony's???...other? I think I want a player that passes below black level IRE 0???..any suggestions, comments????

I have had the sony 9000es,tosh 9200,and the EAD Theater Vision P in my HT and I can say that the sony came in a close second. The audio on the 9000 is awsome,both SACD and redbook. The TVP is simply the best playback I have ever seen. The TVP also won an award from a magazine. I didn't buy it for that reason. I sold the sony only becouse of the uncertainty of SACD. The TVP can be had for about 1700.00
