I prefer the sound of the iMod + Vdock playing lossless files over the Sony 555ES when playing CDs. However, when playing SACDs, the Sony beats the pants off the iMod, but that isn't a fair or valid comparison. In the fair comparison using CDs and lossless, the iMod+Vdock is actually a little more transparent, and has a smoother presentation, while being just as detailed (or maybe just a little more). The Sony has the slightly more vivid soundstage, though (probably mostly due to the more forward overall sound).
