Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series?

Oh that's the only reason why I bought the Player, I didn't know that...Really..

Ok..Sorry, I read your post totally wrong.I guess I didn't quite see when you compared the two side by side in an actually audio shoot out.I thought the fact you pointed out you called the owner and spoke with him and that made you feel safe as a buyer was where you were going with that,my mistake....really
So I too made a side by side audio comparison just like you did even though I must of skipped that in your post.Forgetting the fact the X03se isn't in production anymore and we are still making comparisons with new gear should make the point its a great player.Lets see in 5 years how you feel about the Oppo you bought,if its being compared to new gear and what its worth on the used market...but you do have me on I cant call the owner of Esoteric and ask him which player he recommends buying,lol

You sure assume a lot, n attack a company you know nothing about....N pick out parts of all I said 2 please yourself..Wow Really....

You assume I know nothing about the oppo modded unit which is not true,wow really....I actually compared the two side by side..Im doubting you've even heard the X03se so im taking all this as fluff from you....sorry, but I stand by my personal opinion on which is a better player overall ,which will hold its value better,which is better made....and which sounds better

This thread is going for the missionary position, and someone is going for the gusto...you two should get a room :D.
