Anyone use CD tweaks

A friend uses Shine-Ola, and he brought some over to do an A/B test in my system. For the test, we used two burned copies of each selected CD. One burned disc he treated (but did not tell me which one), and the other he left alone. We tested four selections as I recall, and I identified the treated disc every time.

The sound was louder, more open and with better dynamics. It was a subtle yet obvious difference.

A 1 lb or 2 lb weight of any kind will work just fine on a CD player. Try a dumbell weight, or a diver's weight. If you demand brass, then look for vintage apothecary weights on E-Bay. They look cool, too.

Do a Google search for other retailers.

I’m going to place a nice looking brass ornament on top of some sexy hunk of hard wood (on top of my CD player, of course).

Now, that's thinking outside of the box!

Nice.

Aw shucks (kicks the dirt)...

Thanks.

The Herbie's CD Mat does not work in my Denon 3910. It makes the CD too thick to spin properly.

Human urine wiped off with a lint free microfiber cloth is the only way to go.

Asparagus, or no asparagus?
