Well I have had mine for over a week now. (Sent the Mk3 down to Stan and got the modded unit back 2 days later).
I'm running it off an AppleTV into a NAC202 (NAPSC & HiCap) > NAP250.2 > B&W 804s. (Flashback optical and phono to DIN cables if you're interested)
Soundwise the detail is very, very good. The bass is also much tighter, although maybe a little less pronounced because of this(?). The soundstage is also larger. The only complaint I have (and a minor one at that) is that the mid-range is a little bright but that's probably just my preference. Obviously I can't do a A to B comparison now but I definitely prefer the modded version to the old one.
I haven't had the CD5x on once since I've had the Beresford back. Maybe I should do that over the weekend and see how I get on.
