High End Universal Players ???


Looking for a quality built universal player for home movies as well as great 2 channel sound, looking for great audio as well as video quality. Getting confused with all the salesman guff.I currently am using a Marantz DV 12S2 which has served me well.
Amp - ML 336, Proceed BPA 3
Pre EAD Theatermaster Signature
Dynaudio 3.3 mains, JM Lab cobalt 800s rears and center speaker and Jm Lab sub Utopia 2
Thinking of perhaps a Esoteric,Bel Canto or ??? Any advise would be helpfull,cheers.

garyrb: I've loved my esoteric dv50s. It's been one hec of a DVD player. The redbook and sacd are pretty good to. I'll likely upgrade it one day, but in the 4 years of so that i've owned it, it just keeps performing.

I have a pretty hi rez set up. I have zero complaints on this unit. The newer Esoteric's have DVD upsampling which supposedly closes the gap some on blu ray. Again, I don't feel like I am missing that much as is...great pic and sound.
