But there is indeed FIFO reclocking of the signal in both of the OPs signal paths!
According to Marc Levinson, in the 360S DAC "intelligent FIFO jitter reduction is again employed to buffer and re-clock digital audio signals for highest resolution" http://www.marklevinson.com/products/details.asp?prod=no360 I'd take the Tact out of both chains and see if the audible difference persists.
