Sony SCD 777ES Really that Good???

I am contemplating purchasing one of the used 777ES models out there or just keeping my Meridian 500 Transport and getting it modified with a superclock etc.

Any thoughts out there on this one? Are these sony players that good? If so, why are there so many on the used market? Or can a modified meridian 500 transport and good dac blow the doors off of a one box 777es???

Thanks!!

I've had my SCD777ES for quite a while now. I also have a Sonic Frontiers SFD2MKII tube DAC. Lets say that for me, I can switch between the SF and the Sony output stage for redbook and they are damn close, and my Sony is unmodded.
And then theres SACD, which is another story entirely!
As to sale of the SCD777ES, I think not!
