Witch DVD I should use as a transport

I want to have a entry level DVD to use it as a transport to feed a external DAC , I was considering one of the entry level Pioneer DVD modified by Modwright. Any suggestion? I only need a transport with a really great picture quality but I dont want to pay too much this is why the modwright solution is interesting. Does someone here have a pionner DVD transport modified be Dan wright if yes tell me your apreciation?

Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch!
Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.

Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed.
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead. She's gone where the goblins go,
Below - below - below. Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding Dong' the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
Let them know
The Wicked Witch is dead!

I am scheduled to get my Pioneer DVD-525 modified by him the beginning of December. I am getting the full level II transport and standalone mods. I can let you know what the results are if you're interested!

Well, I'd go with the pro, Stan Warren. Why use a copy-cat when an original will work? Not to mention that you are encouraging the theft of intellectual property when you buy from an imatator! At least that it my opinion....

I hear Dan Wright is a great guy, and he may be learning fast, so it's your call. Dan may do or not do something different.
