Best Standard Def DVD Player under $8,000 used?


I am looking for the best possible Standard Def DVD player
that is BLACK. I have a Krell DVD Showcase now and it's
great but I am wondering if there is better to be had for
under $8,000 used.

I would like to hear opinions/comparisons of the video
quality for:

Krell DVD Standard
Linn Unidisk 1.1
Meridian G98
Denon 5910CI

Thanks

You obviouslyhavent heard the new uncpmpressed audio of Blu-R
ray or you wouldn't feel that way
There sure are a lot of ignorant and rude people on this
message board. People like Skippybo and others whom
insulted me without having the experience are just plain
wrong, ignorant, and a bunch of jerks! Yes Skippybo you
are both wrong and a complete idiot!

I just bought the Denon 3800-BDCI Bluray player to try
against my Krell DVD player. This is Denon's $2000
Bluray and is currently available at a discontinued price of $580.

The Krell had far better DVD playback PQ than the Denon
3800-BDCI when playing the same DVD. This was on my
Pioneer 50" Kuro Plasma. The Krell DVD also blew the
Denon 3800-BDCI out-of-the-water when testing both for
playing Redbook CDs.

So the truth is $300 BluRays (or even $2,000 Denon BluRays)
do not match SOME very highend DVD players when it comes
to DVD+Redbook playback. All these idiots made false
claims without doing the trials themselves.

I wish the moderators would ban the rude people who mock
other posters. Especially when these same "mockers"
clearly don't have any idea of what they are talking
about. I can't think of anything more stupid than people
mocking people when they are themselves incorrect in their
statements.

When it comes to the best "DVD and Redbook" playback, just
buying $300 BluRay will not give you the best playback in
these 2 formats..
The meridian G 98 is good stuff. now with the G series comes dressed in silver with a dark glass top reminiscent of the 500 series. The G98 is an ultra-high-performance CD/DVD transport, complete with a powerful video processor and scaler capable of displaying broadcast quality video at a retail price of $5,995 to $6,495
