In my humble opinion mods are simply a way of depleting your wallet. Example: I recently had need to take apart my highly moded Denon DVD (Underwood Wally), to repair a bad solder joint. What did I find? All that expensive modification boils down to a solid silver wire (22 gague) that attaches the entire circuit, mods and all, to a Gold plated RCA (also a mod) port. What possible good would a $3000 IC connected to this machine do? It all runs through a 2in piece of silver 22 gague wire. It's all a ripoff! At least that is my opinion
