Which is Better? Modded Denon 5900 or Teac DV-50



Between these two universal players, which would provide better CD/SACD/DVD-Audio? Potential mods to the Denon 5900 would consist of everything offered by Modwright (This would make the price of both players roughly the same.)

Do you think that in the next year or so we will begin to see universal players with digital out for multi-channel SACD?

Finally, who is going to win the format war? DVD-A or SACD?

Thanks,

I have a fully two modded Denon 5900 by Underwood including the superclock and power supply mod as well. I also have a Rick Kern modified Teac DV-50 (a $300 mod vs about $1700 for the Denon). The DV-50 blows the doors off the Denon which I now use in my second system and works well with rock music but
I find too forward with classical. Hope this helps.
