Reaction to : Bedini-Ultra Clarifier II

I Recently bought a Bedini Clarifier II ( dual-beam ) - heard all sorts of Great Reviews on it ( lowering the noise floor, hence - more detail and more Open soundstage/presentation ), so I purchased one! With what Little time I used it/listened to it - I Really HAVE NOT heard "Much" Difference ( may be a little ? ). Has Anyone else also Experienced that or am I just going "BATTY" ( and/or am I being SUCKED into the Audiophile Tweaking Domain )?? Is it Worth the $$ ?? Looking for Opinions/Feedback Please!!

never have tried the Bedini myself, but I have experimented with
(1) a bulk magnetic tape eraser &
(2) a Zerostat gun
tried these on a few CD's - but I heard no differences at all.

Antistatic spray (Endust for Electronics) applied to the label side of CD has made some discernable improvements on some discs.

Shakti Stone electromagnetic stabilizer didn't so a thing for my CDP either, but when atop a Synergistic Research Master Control Center placed just above the transformer, the stage wasn't simply improved, it absolutely exploded wide open.

come on now Sean you "need" it & y'all "know it" :)

Richard I dunno about sprays & SACD, but I'm talking about the *label* side not the data side.
Regarding marker pens, my only experience was with the black Auric Illuminator pen marker, which did make a big sonic difference which was no good at all. Thinned out the sound badly & was hyper-detailed at best. Fortunately it cleans right off with alcohol & a cotton ball.
