The ARIA Player from MakeMusic/Garritan is fully compatible with BIAB (Garritan libraries are sFz) and 16 channel. Though bundled with Finale and Garritan libraries, it's available for free at this link. There are PG Music support docs on using it with BIAB.

IK Multimedia's Total Studio 4 bundles are the biggest bang for the buck. For orchestral sounds, you want Miroslav 2, included with both Pro—230GB and Max—670GB but storage is cheap. SampleTank 4 is the player — it's always free.
