$250 budget for vg progscan player - suggestions?

Hello Folks,
My first post here at video asylum.. Just want to ask videophiles here what DVD player you could recommend within the $250 price range that has very good progressive scan video out.. My current elcheapo progscan DVDP has 1-dimensional "black" in dark or night scenes, and has a bit of a grainy texture (software dependent too I guess). My Sony CRT 29" (KV-DR29M61) has progressive scan input capability and I want to get the best from it as possible w/in its limits.
No second hand high end stuff please (ie, Audiogon), I live abroad and only have easy access to most offerings from ubiquitous brands (sony, philips, hitachi, teac, pioneer, maybe denon, etc.) Thank you.
BTW, I've read about Denon players with the Faroudja chip. Any feedback if this also improves pic quality non-HDTV tv's?
