decent universal player on beer budget??


Hey guys,

I am putting together a secondary system and am now looking for a source. The system is now comprised of the following:

Marantz SR4300 a/v reciever
Monitor Audio Bronze B1 speakers
Mission M30i speakers
Mirage NanoSub subwoofer

As for budget, I dont see or have the need for spending more than US$200. I would love it to be a universal if possible. I am looking at the Pioneer DV-588A for around $US120. Will this get me decent sound? What I like about the Pioneer is its ability to play just about everything including DivX. If the sonics match the flexibilty in formats by even an inkling, it should be worth it right? Right now I am using my pc , with an M-Audio Audiophile 2496 sound card as a media center, but want to break away from that for the sake of conveience. The size of my room dictates that my speakers cant be placed optimally to use my setup for gaming and TV watching without some difficulties,hence the request. I will get studio monitors for my pc in the future.
Are there any other recomendations for units in this price range? Anything that you may have had experience with?
Remember this is a seccondary rig for my bedroom and not a state of the art HiFi.

Nothing in this setup has cost me more than US$300 a piece and I will love to keep it that way.

Thanks.

I've said it elsewhere, but I'm pretty happy with my Denon 1920 Universal. Does all its jobs nicely, and fits your budget.
Denon DVD-2200; Absolute Sound recommended component. I've seen several at around $225-$250. Way better than the Pioneers in sound quality and video! Good luck.
Thanks guys for the replies

So I guess the pioneer is out of the question then?? I have good things about this pioneer range dating back to the 563, 578 and so i just assumed that this would also fit that bill. Is it that they only sound good modded??

I will have a look at all of the other recommendations.
I bought a used Pioneer DV-655A for 36.00 on eBay that I like. It sounds pretty good. It is the Asian version of the DV-45.
