I'm not into the golden-eared modifications, truth be said, I'm half deaf so
it's all wasted on me, however:

Aren't there pro-level CD players for this?
Or are the mods a cheaper way of doing it?

Honestly, I don't see any mod making a huge difference, is this for some
specific purpose where the analogue reproduction is more important than just
trying to impress friends with music they couldn't tell the difference on anyway?

Ok, then wouldn't it make sense to use SPDIF? You at least get a choice on
CD player, and in the event of failure, just replace the player.

You're stuck of course till the end of life of the SPDIF interface, or
failure of equipment whichever comes first, but that's going to be some time
into the future, so why worry?
By the time that happens, it will likely be near the end of life of the
Redbook CD standard anyway, and you would be better inclined to move to
whatever the next whizz-bang standard is.

Unless I'm missing something?

I didn't say that there was any problem *using* one - only that it is
debateable as to whether there is any improvement in quality over a
'conventional' drive. I see many many CD and DVD players for repair, and a
good deal of these use pre-built OEM drives in them of exactly the type that
you would find in a computer ie with an IDE interface. They seem to suffer
deck related problems just as much as players fitted with 'conventional'
drives. I also don't think that they are particularly any more long-lived in
computers, than they are when used in HiFis.

If you wanted a player to modify whose laser and deck was going to last for
ever, then you could do a lot worse than one of the Pioneers from a few
years back. Although they used to suffer from a bad spindle motor after very
prolongued use, this item was quick, cheap and easy to replace. On the other
hand, I can't remember replacing more than one or two lasers in Pioneers
since they were first building CD players.

I would have thought that the way to go if you really wanted to experiment
with a better DAC, was via the SPDIF or co-ax outputs from a conventional
player. What comes out of there is data, is data, is data, basically just as
it rolls off the disc. I seem to recall that the magazine Elektor
Electronics have done a couple of external high quality DAC construction
projects in the last couple of years. Go have a look on their website, where
they have all of the articles archived and catalogued for search.

They probably were better made back when they cost $600, but now you can buy
a fast CD-ROM drive brand new for under 20 bucks, and a dual layer DVD
burner for under $40, they've hit rock bottom commodity status.

Your email didn't ring a bell in Myspace, and I am not going to search
the entire Internet to find a picture of you.

So unless you can produce a picture of yourself, how the hell am I
supposed to know if you're Mark Henry, the World's Strongest Man who
deadlifted 903 pounds or Sitre Magana, the World's Fattest Man who
deadlifted 903 doughnuts?

I can assume that you might not have anything to worry about, as many
average size men can push Sitre Magana's fat ass around, and he's 487
pounds not including the weight of the wheelchair.
