DVD, SACD and DVD A via HDMI

Hi,

I need to be able to play standard definition DVDs, SACDs and DVD Audio discs. I'd prefer a single unit which will output via HDMI. Audio quality and ease of connectivity are important. I may look to add a dedicated CD player in the future but for now, I was thinking of the Pioneer DV-LX50 but have just seen some bad comments about it. Can anyone suggest an alternative one box solution which will output audio via HDMI?

Er maybe I should add that it'll be partnered with something like the Pioneer VSX-LX70 and a speaker package based around B&W 683 home cinema system. Budget could be up to £1k ish.

Oppo 983H then. No need to spend a £1000 unnecessarily.
