Perhaps I should add my 'speakers are Meridian DSP5000/1500s, so they only
have SP-DIF inputs.


So what you're hearing is the speakers converters.
That dosen't surprise you that each unit sounds alike?
What a numbskull you are.

In the case of the Marantz he is *also* listening to the Marantz's DAC and
his ADC.

What a numbskull *you* are.

How do you suggest I'm hearing the 'speakers converters when the quality of
the converters is orders of magnitude better than quality of the drive units
for distortion and flatness of frequency response?

Had you said that I was hearing the limitations of my loudspeakers, you may
have had a point, but then, isn't hat the issue? Electronics, CD players and
the like are essentially transparent, and consequently don't have a sound,
so what you're always hearing is the loudspeakers, and their interaction
with the room.
