OK, I admit, I'm a big-time skeptic of all these mods, but really, who writes this stuff? I've always had this mental picture of people coming up with the most absurd terminology, and then lauging themsleves silly when people actually buy it. Frankly, I'll eat my BDP-93 if any of these mods make a whit of difference to the video perofmance of the player. I've just ordered and plan to use the stock unit.
Indeed - having a technical background as I & many other HH'ers do, we know it's utter nonsense, but I've also been studying the psychology of this kind of thing & quite often the writer's actually believe this stuff themselves ! Usually they've no / limited knowledge of what they're talking about & if they actually do some testing, the tests are so flawed or simply incorrect that they're utterly meaningless. Ever seen any before / after mod-measurements included in the sales blurb ? No, me neither....
I'm going to order a stock BDP-93 as well soon (and sell my BDP-83SE) just to future-proof myself for 3D & to give the flexibility of 2 HDMI outputs - but I'll quite happily join you in a Blu-ray buffet !
