The Exemplar Denon 2900 and Modwright Sony 999 are at the same level: IMO it comes down to system matching.
The former is warmer, has better "held" notes and trailing transients, with a more blended (coherent) soundstage.
The latter is more neutral, has better (sharper) leading transients, more focused imaging and a deeper soundstage.
As I said previously my Modwright doesn't have the clock upgrade. I bought the Denon used and haven't opened it yet so I don't know if it has a clock upgrade, although I suspect not.
