CD Tweaks and Longterm Damage

Jes45,

Thank you for your very informative explanation, and your friend's work in evaluating & reviewing all of the CD treatment products. Very nice!

I have both Shine-Ola & Vivid, but will continue using the Shine-Ola. (Anyone want to buy some Vivid - Ha!). Thanks.

Albert,

Thanks for your coroborative evaluation.

How was your trip? Have you recovered from jet lag?

Thanks Jes45.I'll check it out.

Shventus, I recovered from jet lag just in time to pack and leave for the Denver Audio Fest. It begins on Friday and I fly out a day early to prep and rest before the insanity.

New images of my Euro shoot in Milan and London should be posted here at Audiogon within the next week or so.

Jes45, Lloyd got enough of my money when I bought my Walker turntable and black gate motor controller. He can stand to loose a sale on one bottle of Vivid :^).

I'll add to the Shine Ola praise--I found it made a positive difference for my discs as well. And it is a great name. Now I need to find a treatment that not only removes dust but also repels it from the disc (my Forsell goes crazy when dust gets on the disc). I've actually taken to using my Zerostat gun on discs for this purpose. So far the discs haven't disintegrated (yet).

I have compared Shine Ola to LAT International's CDiamond. While the Shine Ola is good, If found LAT's product to be unquestionably better. Provides better sound stage and much quieter back ground - all extraneous noise dissapears.
