| Halo JC-1, Part 2 next thing you gotta do is isolate 'em...:-) | |
| Preamp Isolation Cones Without Going NUTS i agree with remarks about DH Cones (from Golden Sound); I use the Super size cones in addition to Jumbo and Large sizes; extreme hardness of NASA ceramic material (next highest to diamond - hence DH (diamond hardness) - yields lightning-fast (mec... | |
| WTD - 3D Sound like Amused To Death By R Waters as i recall, The Final Cut also featured this 3-D technique... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize interesting?http://www.physics.umd.edu/lecdem/services/demos/demosk2/k2-46.htm | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize DVD player lasers are 655 nm (red) while almost all CD player lasers are 780 nm (infrared)...it might get a little complicated to analyze the color situation, as the color(s) of the ink of CD label enters into the picture as well... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Sean - the so-called permanent markers (ink, not paint) can be removed with over-the-counter isopropyl alcohol. The big Marks-a-Lot and Staedtler pens give good results (for green and violet and red). For blue-green (cyan) I use Sharpie, but only ... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Strangely enough, On Mercury Living Presence CDs red marker on edge will always sound better than green; on almost all other CDs blue-green (cyan) marker will almost always sound better than a pure green marker. Black marker on inner edge of CDs w... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Metralla, you're very close; the index of refraction of polycarb layer is 1.55, then the wavelength of the 780 nm laser in the polycarb layer would have to be 500 nm, which is actually the wavelength of cyan (blue-green). Following the theory of c... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Another wrinkle in the CD edge coloring problem. Here is link to a color wheel:http://hort.ifas.ufl.edu/TEACH/floral/color.htmEven if one wishes to believe that red is the color to be absorbed, cyan (blue-green), not green, is the complementary co... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Herman, Hi again, the reflected laser light doesn't have a chance to come out of the plastic medium and be red light again (in air) - it's too late; it has already been absorbed by the color you have (hopefully) painted around the edge of the CD. ... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Herman, Hi - the typical CD player laser light is infra-red, i.e. not in visible spectrum. Also, the light is not red or even infra-red while inside the plastic as wavelength is downshifted due to refraction...if you subscribe to theory of color a... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize The small blue rings from Compact Dynamics, makers of Optrix, works well to reduce slipping at the CD/spindle interface; Vivid has replaced Auric Illuminator in my procedure; I also prefer to use Mapleshade Mikrosmooth as first step & like the... | |
| dh cones on Neuance platforms I recommend DH Cones with my platforms to customers; the DH Cones apparently improve the effectiveness of whatever they support. The DH Cones seem to be more efficient than other similar feet at allowing "residual vibration" in the system to exit ... | |
| What CD titles to get from BMG???? The forte of the BMG catelog is Jazz, so I have stocked up on all the Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, Billie Holiday, etc. remasters, of which there are quite a few outstanding ones; also be sure and pick up some of the blues remasters like Robert Jo... |
