I did too, sometime around 1992. He was modding the JVC 1050 (XL-Z1050TN) CD player at the time, and he informed me of a shop where I could buy one, by mentioning his name, for $500 new in box. The place turned out to be local to me at the time, so I bought one. By the time I saved up enough to have mine modded, Stan had faded into obscurity, sadly.

I remember two things about our conversation, in addition to him getting me a great price on the JVC. First was that he was very easy to talk 'audio' with. The second, which I've had questioned by a few on the Asylum over the years, was in regard to leaving a CD player powered on all the time, which Stan Warren suggested to me for 'best sound'.

I asked if the laser wouldn't wear out sooner by leaving it on 24/7, but Stan assured me that as long as I removed the CD from the drawer after listening, the laser would shut itself off, and then reactivate whenever another disc was inserted.
