CD Clarity
(As Recommended by Harry Pearson of The Absolute Sound for Optimal SACD Playback)
CD Clarity, invented by the late Dave Herren, is a light blue, nontoxic, non-alcohol
based fluid, that performs a number of important functions. When applied on
and wiped around the playing surface (the shiny side) of CD's DVD's, Blu-Ray, LD's, Records and
CD-ROMS:
It cleans discs and coats them with a "dry film protectant" that shields
them from scratches, fingerprints and dirt.
It seals and closes fine scratches, holes, and imperfections in the disc's
polycarbonate coating.
It contains an antistatic chemical that removes static electricity and static
"hot spots" that form on the discs over time.
Because of its performance in the above areas, CD Clarity improves
the intensity of the laser beam on the disc, resulting in a more
accurate reading of the information on the disc. And with CD Clarity,
tracks on discs that were previously scratched, either skipping
or not playing at all are now playable with a great decrease and
minimization of the above noted interfering factors, there is
less interference and filtering on and in the the polycarbonate
coating of the disc, resulting in the increased transparency of
that coating which allows "a more intense laser light to 'spot
light' the area to the be read" and in the case of a CD, extract
more music with more clarity. For the listener this means an improved
frequency response, more detail, and better dynamic range." The
overbrightness and harshness of some CD's and DVD's is noticeably
decreased, resulting in a more natural smoothness and improved
clarity and definition. For DVD's, CD Clarity by itself improves
subtly, but noticeably, picture quality in several aspects, as
in improved detail and clarity.
Application:
To apply, spray CD Clarity on three spots on the shiny playing side of the
disc, wiping it around the disc with a good quality toilet tissue or a soft
cotton cloth. You may use a new area of the cloth to completely remove the left
over fluid. Using CD Clarity once will clean, fill and protect your CD, DVD
or CD-ROM. But for optimized sound or picture quality, you need to spray CD
Clarity whenever you listen to a CD or watch a DVD. Even though the CD Clarity
may have been applied recently, static electricity and "hot spots" build up
quickly, interfering with optimal sound and picture. Each application of CD
Clarity removes the hot spots and static electricity, resulting in a noticeable
improved sound and picture quality each time you watch or listen.
A CD Clarity spray bottle contains enough fluid for application on 200 CD's,
so one bottle lasts a good long time. My recommendation is to try CD Clarity,
and for 3 cents each time you'll be amazed at the difference in what you can
see and hear. CD Clarity sells for $15.95 a bottle plus (which includes the cloth) less than $3.00 shipping and handling in
the USA.

My Personal Experience with CD Clarity by
Rick Scoggin
I have used CD Clarity for some time now on music CD's. My family
and many others have all been able to tell the difference before and after application.
There is a significant difference in the improved clarity and definition, while
decreasing the harshness and brightness on the top end. The strings and higher
frequencies are less harsh and easier to listen to. The most dramatic example
of how CD Clarity performs came when I bought Martha Agerich's 1995 performance,
with the Berlin Philharmonic of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1, on Deutsche
Grammophon, from a used CD store, after looking for it for ages. But when I
got home, it apparently had been scratched so severely that it wouldn't play
in a number of places. I was pretty despondent about having to return this hard
to find, tremendous performance, when I thought about applying CD Clarity, which
I did. When I put it in the CD player again, it played perfectly, and has ever
since.
For a while I only applied CD Clarity once to each CD, not taking
into account the sound degradation that occurs as the static electricity and
"hot spots" build up on the CD. But then when I started using CD Clarity each
time I listened to a CD, I was amazed at how the sound was totally refreshed
and made clean each time. And also having had the CD Clarity Pen (applied previously)
used together each time with the high performance fluorescent light, the sound
improvement and the increased amount of music and the detail that I hear, compared
to before the treatment, is stunning.
