Hi there,

I'm using the Denon 2910 (about $600). It plays beautifully in 720P although it does have DVI out and 1080i capability. Read an article recently that said upsampling DVDs to 720p was probably a better experience than up to 1080i...I concur. The Denon plays SACD fabulously, especially with the 990/755 rig I have. Why not get a better player? Well...the Denon is great for the price...and I'm saving up for Blu-Ray Hi Def DVD next year. I didn't want to spend a lot on a DVD player just before the "big" format change next year.

Hope this helps...Marcus
