What does it take to have a revealing system?

I have to heard it said that a system is not revealing enough for a certain component to really show off what it can sound like.

For example, i bought a Sony SCD777ES ten years ago. All that time it has sounded only as good as the other CD transports I own via an Adcom DA700 (tweaked with antistatic foam, and all via power conditioners) Well FINALLY the Sony sound a little better than the DAC. After upgrading nearly everything else! So the Sony always did have the ability to sound better.. I just did not have the rest of a system that could show it. So it is ALWAYS some parts holding back others. Finding and fixing those problem parts is the key.
