Yes, this is exactly what I am experiencing. I had never bothered to try SACD on my Oppo until after Gary did his mod for me, but the fact that I hear pops/small dropouts on SACD on BOTH the 3xSPDIf output and on the analog output suggests it is a problem with the Oppo not the mods. These pops are pretty subtle BTW.

The good news is that Bluray sounds awesome - never better - thank you, Gary! The bad news is that, at least for now, the Oppo is inferior on SACD to my previous reference, a DVDUpgrades-modified Denon.
