Rick, there WAS a heavy hitter there for comparison.

What whould you suggest we try out our new baby against? What do you consider to be a "heavy hitter".
Geoff compared the 5400 to my Level 7 Upgraded SCD-777ES with UberClock, and actually preferred the 5400.
This Level 7 SCD-777ES has been the focus of a series of reviews done by Karl Lozier, for this forum and for Positive FeedBack magazine, and I believe he considers it a heavy hitter.
Another reviewer in the US compared his own Level 6 DVP-S9000ES against a fully Meitner system and said the Upgraded SONY was clearly superior, and Karl says the SCD-1/SCD-777ES is superior in many ways to a similarly Upgraded DVP-S900ES. This comparison has been done by several owners around the world, all are happy the Upgraded unit is better sounding than the Meitner.
Geoff has a XA-777ES as modified by yourself, he told me it's not in the same arena, although we haven't been able to do a head to head comparison. I am always interesting checking out my work against that of the big guys, what do you suggest?
