Who Does the Best Mods on CD Players


I own a Pioneer PD-75 player. Am considering spending a couple hundred or so on a mod since I can't afford to buy the player of my dreams. Any opinions about who out there does the best job modding players - for example John Hillig of Musical Concepts or Stan Warren, etc.? Are these mods worth the money? Do they really improve the sound of the player? Any advice is very much appreciated.

Stan Warren is the only one modifier that I know of that actually designed a totally proprietary descrete output stage that was offered in his mods (amoung his other unique circuits). He's also the only modifier with a past history of designing world class sounding pre-amplifiers that turned the reviewer community on it's ear. Other modifiers (such as Dan Wright) are very good, but I definately think Stan Warren is at the top of the heap. Some of Stan's circuits are so sophisticated that companies like Krell and Levinson could learn a thing or two if they took the time to review Stan's circuits. IMHO Stan Warren is that good!
