Sony ES players uses Burr-Brown DAC's.
My sony scd-c555es which uses BB.. has a very detailed sound that is quick, and accurate, maybe a tad thin sounding. Not laidback or warm sounding with my B&W's. The DAC is important but also it depends on how the DAC is implemented.
Sorry, not much help, try posting your question over at audioasylum
