What is the best DVD/CD player under $1000?

I have been deciding between the Denon 2900, Marantz 8400, and the Pioneer Elite 47AI. After all the discounts it seems as if I can get either one of them for about $500-$700. Or should I wait and get one with a DVI interface as my new Samsung DLP HDTV will have one. I would really appreciate any feed back as you guys have quite a bit of knowledge and seem to be ready to share.

The rest of my system consists of:

Mcintosh MX132 Pre/pro
Mcintosh MC7205
Vienna Acoustics Beethoven (fronts)
Vienna Acoustics (Maestro) (center)
Vienna Acoustics (Waltz) (rear surrounds)
Velodyne HGS12 II (sub)

Thanks!
