Ayon CD2S vs ModWright XA-5400ES Ultimate Truth


Last year I bought a new Sony XA-5400ES and sent it off for the full Modwright Truth mods. I've been generally happy with it and think it does many, many things well, but I keep reading the Ayon CDP raves and am wondering if anyone has ever compared these two head-to-head. I listen to a big range of music, but am all tube and very much a lover of great midrange. I'm running a pair of the late Paul G's TAD 1000 monoblocks and a Mystere CA preamp. Thanks in advance for any thoughts/insights.

I'd talk to this guy Rhyno.
He has the XA5400 with the modwright tube mods.
He's had alot of CD players which he compared to the 5400 with the modwright tube mods.
Here's the link to his system and the posts.
