does anyone sharpie thier CD's???


its amazing. take a wedge sharpie, and color in the outermost edge of the CD.. then color in the center flat area, and the innermost edge... when you hold the CD up to light, you should not see any coming through..... so actually before you do this, pick a track, turn it up and listen,,,,, then color in the disc, without adjuting the volume, listen again..... i get more volume, calrity and depth...... check this out!!

Shadorne, you said, "The green marker on the edge of the disc....This is the kind of stuff science is able to deal with." I agree with you; but how does science deal with it when the best color is purple? :-)
Red: 780 nm, Orange: 620 nm, Yellow: 585 nm, Green: 570 nm,
Blue: 490 nm, Indigo: 440 nm, Violet: 420 nm

Purple is shorter wavelength than Green. Since the light from a CD laser is Red (780 nm) then purple, being further from red than green, will filter out more red light. Therefore purple will be more effective than green, as a filter.

Another factor is that purple has six letters and green has only five but nobody will buy that argument...
Shadorne - No, the color purple will better *reflect* red than will the color green. That's the (scientific) problem with the argument for purple. To make the issue even more confusing, 780nm is not really red, but infrared (not visible).

Metro, is there science to the cleaver little clock? Do you know of any. If there is no science does that mean the clock can't work and its that dreaded audiogon word "placebo effect".

You're kidding, right?
