Aurios Isolation & Talisman Magnetic Optimizer?

Mikey has a segment on his new DVD about magnetic treatment of vinyl. Seems the theory is that the carbon black that is added to vinyl to give a black appearance creates some condition that doing a magnetic treatment removes. Material science people I have talked to dispute the theory. So, who to believe?

As far at the Aurios go I have an LP12 (very sensative) and that definitely contributes to the solution. It doesn't solve it by themselves but I would not be able to walk by the playing tt witout them.

Thanks very much for the information. Greatly appreciated.
