Is There Big Trouble Brewing?
Sean, the synthesizer AND disco were the culprits back in the 80s.:-)And by the way, you have good taste in music. I was born in 59. And I consider myself fortunate to have lived in a great era of music. It might just be my age catching up to me b... 
Is There Big Trouble Brewing?

I beg to differ Hueske. The information sources I utilized before posting this thread was totally devoid of any information provided by RIAA. Information sources such as Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Investors Business Daily, The World Eco...

Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize
Hi Sean. Yea, I'm using MSRP on the Audiodesk as an example. But, I probably paid fairly close to that amount. I purchased the Audiodesk and the Furutech from Cable company as a "package deal". If memory serves, I paid $750.00 for the both pieces.... 
Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize
You're correct Albert. And if you did add the costs of all materials involved in doing a complete treatment, I have a sneaky suspicion that the total costs would be less than $ 1.00 per CD. Considering the overall improvement, I feel that it is mo...
