Best Home Theater Processor Used 1K-3K Range

Hi all,
Looking for a Home Theater Processor that has an HDMI input and does all the latest formats, DTS-HD MA 7.1 etc, that I can pick up used in the 1k to 3K range. Preferably no speaker outputs if possible. No mass market crap, ie Panasonic, Sony, etc. Can anybody suggest anything good that I could scoop up on Ebay or Audiogon? I currently have a modded Oppo BDP-103 and am using all analog outputs to an Onkyo preamp and am looking to upgrade sound wise. I am also looking to upscale 5.1 sources to 7.1 which the Oppo can't do.
Thanks

No need to buy used - get the Emotiva XMC-1. This is a killer processor for very reasonable money, $1999. Go to Emotiva.com....

RW, are you an Emotiva dealer? Get an Emotiva seems to be your answer to any question about what to buy. Now my second question is why OP would be using analog outputs from an Oppo 103 rather than a 105?

RW, the same might be said about me being an Oppo dealer, because I usually suggest that if analog input is not required connecting an Oppo 105 directly to amps should be considered, because an Oppo 105 can do many of the things a processor is expected to do.
