I had a 506.24 & sold it for a 508.20 because it had the older transport & balanced outs. Your 506.20 should have the older transport & should have a pretty smooth sound. Meridians are known for a more "laid back" sound but I have tweaked mine with Blackgates & Schottky's, Soler Points & a TG Audio 688 PC & I think it sounds pretty good. I'm also using Luminous Audio Synchestra Sigs. No digital glare in addition to a great sounding unit.
I decided to make my system digital only & have done what I think is necessary to get the most out of this format within my budget. All together, about $2500.00 for everything digital. That's a good 2k less than retail.
