Good compilation, it's great how you placed Accolade and Accolade II together to make a continuation. I enjoy making compilations like this, but with my favorite film music. Isn't it fun? Arranging songs so that they flow right into the next, based on the last and first chords or notes, or their mood, can make for a very pleasing result.
I agree on the point about leaving out songs from V since they are best listened to altogether. Yet maybe including Prelude or one of the instrumentals could have worked too. The Death of Balance could help emphasize what Symphony X can do (prog metal with classical influence) if the compilation was presented to someone unfamiliar with the band, plus make a nice segue as well. This is only what I would do I guess, but I do like your compilation!
