Yeah. And at £10, no-ones going to kick up too much of a fuss when
they work out they've been done. Heck, they might even think their
gear sounds better!

I have one of these, not arguing for 8 quid. im convinced it makes it

sound
better, but i think due to the sheer awefullness of the cd its self. not
convinced on magnetic thingymebob stuff.


Pathetic. Try listening with a beautiful girl and a few glasses of wine,

with
a bath waiting with floating candles. Now you try to tell me that doesn't
enhance your listening experience. It's pathetic. "Wave a few magnets in
the correct feng shui direction over the carpet, ..." - How sad, and you

don't
even know what "feng shui" means, or how to pronounce it. But you keep
spending money, preferably in my direction, and I'll keep you feeling
warm and fuzzy, especially the latter. Such people make me laugh, really!

Oh, and some spelling lessons wouldn't go amiss. I can do those too! For a
price!


give me as many spelling lessons as you like, wont help a bit im no sound
engineer or electrics engineer, so a cd that sends pulses through your hifi
or whatever seemed worth a go, why not? people by the flux dumping black
brick for 40 quid.

densens cd players also integrate the cd, and they seem pretty good, i was
quite taken with the 400xs or whatever its called. i think beeing blindly
against all these things is just as daft as being blindly for them all. i
mean its worth a try isnt it? people still spend 40 quid a meter and more on
speaker cable, im yet to move from ofc79.

not to mention there was a bit or sarcasm there but it doesnt matter.

they work out they've been done. Heck, they might even think their
gear sounds better!


The bit I find amusing (apart from the guy who actually admitted to BUYING
one!) is it tells you to play the cd 'at normal volume' - I doubt the cdp
changes it's behavoir significently with the amplifier's volume!

In fact, the only reson I can think for them not wanting you to play it
with the volume right down is you hear the unpleasent, so the next bit of
music sounds better in comparison.

Do your neighbours a favour! Turn it right up, set the CD to repeat and
then go shopping. Your neighbours systems would then sound much better
to them after you get back and stop it.

Very much a theory, I've no idea what it sounds like!
