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.

Dave_b, I remember when you sold it. I had a feeling it would be a regret.
I love my Modwright 999se. It has the Signature Truth with a Truth Umbilical. Very musical.

Modwright has a special this weekend only...I just ordered my second XA5400ES full mod wt Truth Umbilical and Bybee purifiers for the AC rails:) I made the mistake of selling my first one and have lamented ever since:( There will be music again, sometime near the middle of January!!

Dan is taking orders on MW Oppo 105 and I would wait for owner reviews before ordering a XA5400.

There's an AC thread and appears 105 is a BIG winner.

Wonder how the Modded MW 105 sounds in comparison to the MW5400?
