Modded Players Bias in Listening


I read so many posts from people who love their newly modded CD players, whatever make/mod.

Here's the question - anyone listen to two stock players side by side of the same make, ship one off for mod, and then listen to the two again? I'm not speaking in absolutes, but to some degree when you lose a piece of gear for several weeks AND fork over 500-2000 bucks for the mod, I would think it possible for some bias to creep into the regular human's evaluation. But I am interested in hearing anyone's tales of A/B as mentioned above.
Thanks

Bias, bias? after spending good money with a mod man? It would be silly to say how good it is if it is'nt. The only bias one would then have would be against the modder. A well experienced music lover, and ligitimate audiophile, should be able to tell good, and undeniable improvement when he hears it.But beauty is in the ear of the (beholder) hearer. no rudeness intended.
