Hi Art, I stumbled upon your system while looking up info on Marigo's digital cable.
Per our previous emails about the CEC TL51X transport, I had mine modded to the max by RAM. I also had them do the Audiocom four clock and other mods to my Musical Fidelity XDAC.
After about 500 hours to break everything in, the difference is staggering. The fully modded CEC is night and day different than the stock unit.
IMHO, lightyears better. I could use a lot of audiophile words to try to fully explain it, but to sum it up in as few words as possible, I'd just say it sounds more "REAL" than any other set-up I've ever heard.
At the end of the day, it just gets things right.
Assuming you still have yours, you may want to look into the RAM mod. It is a bit pricy, at $1,900 for the full mod. All the info is available on their web site.
Also, your system looks very interesting, can't really comment further, because I'm not really familar with those pieces.
Happy holidays, Bret
