Modwright sony xa5400 vs Modwright Oppo 95

Anyone got a chance to compare modded xa5400 and Oppo 95 units? How would you define the overall sound character of the two? I am using Merlin speakers with ARS filarmonia amplifier. I like to listen Jazz and Classical mainly. Would like to have a great resolution, vocal clarity, focused sound stage and full bodied presentation (..of Piano and string instruments).
Not looking for comparison between stock and modded units.
Please help me decide between the two. Thanks.

Mcpherson,

I'm using Herron VTSP 3A Tube pre and Herron M1 mono amps!

Are you upgrading? I saw that you had them for sale. Did you have the 5400 before it was Modded? If so what changes did you notice the most?

It's awesome equipment but I'm moving to a tube integrated amp. I bought my 5400 after one of the audio shows already modded.

It must have made quite an impression on you at the show. When you get the upgrade bug let me know. :)
By the way how much was the last upgrade you had done with the Bybee and audio magic?

I'm extremely satisfied with my MW 5400 and have no desires on trying any other players since I have heard many of my friends mega dollar units.
