I use a combination of the Denon 1920 and a Lite Dac-AH. The combo should cost you around $400 give or take.
I use the coax out to the Dac-AH for redbook, the Denon's internal dacs for SACD and DVD-Audio, and toslink out to my preamp for home theater stuff.
It's a pretty great setup, very tough to beat for the money. You might also check out the Cambridge universal player; it's right around your budget and is well regarded.
