I was looking for a similar player, and eventually brought myself a Reference Audio Mod Oppo DV-980 H universal player. Full mod version with Super clock, separate power supply and complete cyrogenic treatment for US 1,650. Within your budget.
I would have given you personal opinion on the player, but the unit is laying idle and actually sealed, as I found myself in the situation of going aboard for studies very soon. I may well be selling mine in new condition, but this is one you may like to include in your short-list.
