Two channel over HDMI? Then, yeah, the player isn't going to matter.

The biggest thing you'll need to worry about is if it will be getting firmware updates in the future. But even the trouble caused by Avatar's new DRM seems to have been fixed on every player affected within a week. Though for a trade-show I'm guessing this will be home rolled video? Just make sure to test a final disc before shipping out.

The other thing is the cheapest players have longer load times. But that isn't even much of an issue any more. Plus it is load time, once it's running they all run the same.
