La45 - I have looked at a couple of other Oppo modder's work, but unless i am mistaken, they charge considerably more than Ric does, for what seems to be the same amount of mods.
BTW, here is what I am considering having Ric do to the BDP-83 ;
MBBM (Mind Blowing Baby Mod) $85
Basic level mod: $195
EVS two channel output stage plus modded discrete regulators: $250
Better regulator and power supply parts for the two channel DAC. $100
Total $630
Now, that same $630 will get me one of the VERY, VERY good DACs I've already mentioned. Leaves me wondering if this boils down to personal choice alone, or if ONE of my choices may be leaps and bounds better.
