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.

Any break in time with mod by Modwright? Stock Oppo takes forever to break in (currently at 250 hr) and I seriously hope I don't have to go through that process again.

I've experimented with several receptacles and Modwright CDP's and PS sound best plugged into a Oyaide R1. YMMV.
