Very interesting, thanks
Very interesting, thanks
yes i use a marigo all the time with my bel canto cd2 top loader . nice little tweak
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down
Eric Bibb
In my old JVC CD Player (circa 1993) I used to put on the music CD a disc cut out from an old "5.25 support from an old floppy disc and heard some differences, but never tried on my current Classè Audio CDP1...

Currently using a Marigo Ultima Signature.....probably the best, but pricey , although I also have one by Wezhi Precision that also works great
Two very different sounds.
Our education is wrong, it takes no note of the subtleties of human nature, it places more importance on the memory of an individual than how memorable an individual is. Bernard Sumner 1995
I'd like to give one of these a go purely out of interest as I can't see any valid technical reason why they would change the sound in the slightest.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

It's that some people use them and say they work and some have used them and say they don't. They really shouldn't work, the explanation that they improve the sound by reducing the need for error correction is akin to saying that racing stripes make your car go faster. That doesn't mean there can't be an explanation beyond the purely psychological, just damned if I can think of one. Would like to try just to see if I personally experienced the positive benefit, and go from there. Not prepared to fork out any money though.

Only thought i had was stability. The extra weight etc stopping disc from moving up n down as much. Might just be snake juice though
My Densen disc works for me imo so you never knw

Even then it will either read or not. That is the thing with CD there is no grey area. It isn't possible to get it to read the disc 'not as well as it should' without very obvious effects like skipping or drop outs.
If there is a genuine effect it must be in the analogue domain, damping vibration that is somehow getting into the analogue circuity and introducing noise. It is a bit of a stretch, though. But I don't agree with dismissing any inexplicable effect as placebo without a full investigation, starting with listening for myself.
