marantz 11s2 sacd player modifications

has anyone had a marantz 11s2, 7s1 or other older marantz reference sacd player modified ? if so, how did the sound change ?

i will be getting a marantz 11s2 soon and am thinking about having a tube buffer stage installed, to "warm up" the sound. i am not aware of anyone who does this.

does anyone know of any modifiers who have done this in the past ?

thanks

being a SACD player which processes more digital signal than a CDP, it's important to lower it's jitter error.

I too, had the Underwood Upgrade. Very nice,but even more of an upgrade was the RAM upgrade I got on the same Marantz some years later. Do the Clocking upgrade(the top of the line) and see if you agree. The only thing about the RAM people is they are slow, way slower than they say they'll be. And hard to reach.
