If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically...

Thanks for this!!!

Although I have 2 different enhancing discs XLO and Isotek, I have been negligent to use them. 3 days ago I reinstalled my Marantz HDCD 1 and while it sounded appreciably better than my Oppo 105 with upgraded PS (though also unenhanced in a long time), the HDCD 1 was sizzly on top. First I replaced the $250 WW power cord with a ~$750 PC from Tekline. That helped, but the images were still a little fuzzy. I put my XLO disc in for a complete run-through. Images were much better focused as well as location on the sound stage

@millercarbon 😂 good post

A copy of the Ayre disc, the 1.2 version, arrived yesterday. I tried out track seven on it, the one that supposed to demagnetize. I listened to Joni Mitchell’s Blue and Emmylou Harris’ Wrecking Ball CD’s on my Marantz KI Ruby CD player both before and after using the disc.

I honestly could not detect any difference in the music after using the Ayre’s disc Track 7, which contains the ’Full Glide Tone". I’ll try again after playing all seven of the tracks through and report back. Maybe trying it out using some other CD’s before and after may make a difference. I’m listening to Herbie Hancock’s Blue Note "My Point of View" CD right now. I’ll try that plus something else and report back,

@millercarbon just curious, did you demagnetize your electronic’s or CD’s with the Radio Shack Bulk Tape Eraser? 
 

@tonywinga when using the Radio Shack Bulk Tape Eraser on your CD’s did you demagnetize from the label side?

I also have a Radio Shack Bulk Tape Eraser from back in the day and would like to give it a try. Thanks 

Just to add…I also have the Ayre - Irrational, But Efficacious! CD and IsoTec Full System Enhancer CD that really works well.
