Do you demag or destat your CDs/DVDS?

"Maybe a dumb question but, Wouldnt a Milty Zero-Stat Gun have the same effect for alot less money ?"

That's why I ask the question, can't the plastic layer of the disk pick up a static charge? I'm not saying a CD can can become magnetized, but plastic is a conductor in the in the same way vinyl is.

As a final thought, are you concerned with the magnetic field your speakers put out impacting the playback of your CD player? A lot of speakers are shielded so maybe yours are? This would be a perfect example of a much stronger magnetic field that it is very likely in a reasonably close proximity to your CD player.

I'm not ignorant. I fight foolishness and sometimes with humor(or laughs with anger and somewhat courage), because same money fool pays for bogus or fake can be much more useful elsewhere real. Even fool can feel difference between $350 disk demagnetizer and $350 pair of shoes after all(or $350 is too much for shoes huh?).

It's alway's one's call weather one realizes or not who to support -- the bogus factory(ies) or as per example above shoe designers.

You are ignorant when it comes the subject matter of this thread. You have zero experience, squat, natta, none, in regards to the subject matter of this thread! But that does not stop you from trashing the devices and doing so the reputations of the designer / manufacturer of the equipment. Hell do you even have a respectable CDP in your 2 channel audio system? Do you even listen to CDs? But you are the official site expert on the subject right?

These guys do not have any skin in the game.

My ProAc Studio 200 speakers are not shielded.

What you can not get through your thick head is a magnetized CD spinning inside a CDP is basically a spinning dynamo.

I have an old Bedini Ultra Clarifier I bought new at cost well over 10 years ago. I have too many hours to count experimenting with the device over the years.

Yes, actual experience. Didn't read it in a book or magazine. Didn't learn anything from Flat Earther naysayers on this site either..... Actual hands on experience.

I just don't understand the term "Flat Earther" in the context you use it. As I understand it a flat earther is one who rejects scientific reasoning and instead relies on outdated ideas, pseudoscience or religious arguments to derive their facts. What Czarivey and Mceljo are asking for is scientific proof that the minute magnetic fields produced either by the spinning disc or the paint on the top of the disc have any audible effect.
This always seems to be the case when the term "Flat Earther" is thrown around.
