While I haven't had any modifications done to my SACD player, I can understand why someone else might want to. Almost all consumer electronics come to market with a varying number of compromises which allow them to be sold at the prices we see. The Mod industry exists to correct as many of these compromises as they deem appropriate. Most offer tiered modifications so that they have something to offer at a variety of price points.
By replacing parts with similar items of a higher quality they can often improve a product so that its performance exceeds its cost relative to other items available in the market.
I am perfectly happy with my current CD/DVD/SACD player (a budget Sony model), but it's nice to know that if I ever stop being satisfied with it that I have the option of turning it over to someone that can improve it for me.
There is an element of faith and trust involved in the process and proper research can help you decide if it is the right thing for you.
