Hi Scott,
I'll bet that VAC/ ML rig sounds great! I'm a big fan of both. For digital, I'd investigate Reubent's RA Opus 21 reco, sounds like a great deal to me. Another reco would be a Marantz SA-11S1 or if you can find one at your price a SA-11S2, these Marantz's get you SACD capability too.
To be perfectly honest though, with your VAC/ML combo, I'd look to spend my $2K on a vinyl rig first. Digital has come a long way, but is still flatter and less fleshed out than vinyl, IMHO.
Happy hunting,
John
