In my 20 yr $4 mil(just kidding) test program for some reason it seems to me that the cd's that are not see through, or have a good light block by the label side do not benefit from my cd mat. The others that you can hold up to the light and easily see light through them are benefited quite a bit from my cd mat. Painting the edges I never noticed improvement. Micro smooth from mapleshade I did notice improvement also. Thats just me though, my ears are weird, I look funny and I think I live in a crooked house, and I feed my dog human food sometimes.
Forty bucks well spent....
Looking through an old thread about CD treatments, I saw a reference to a product by Audience called "Auric Illuminator." It consists of a black pen to be used on the outside edge of the CD as well as the inside of the hole, and a gel like liquid which is applied to both sides of the disc, and then polished off with special cloths, which are provided.
I had used Finyl brand CD treatment many years ago, and thought it had some positive effect. Anyway, without boring readers or myself with adjectives and hyperbole, I have to say that this product makes a positive sonic improvement that is easy to hear.
I really did not want to shell out $40.00 plus shipping for a cheap pen and a bottle of liquid, but it was more than worth it. For those of us who are still using silver discs, I can't imagine a better way to spend so little and get so much.
I will make the usual disclaimers: I am not affiliated in any way with Audience or the sale of their products.
