I was told by someone who owns both the 83 SE Nuforce and the new Bdp 95 that the new Bdp 95 stock off the box is by FAR the way better than the modified 83 SE and yet you can still modified the Bdp 95. I suggest spend the extra money and get the Bdp 95. Most people that has the 95 didn't need to mod it as it's excellent already right off the box.
