>Since you have experience with the illumninator perhaps you can answer a few >questions....
>What is the benefit of treating the label side of the disc?
The blue gel is supposed to have anti-static stuff in it (most CD treatments have this, nothing new). Audience recommends that you do this in their instructions. They also provide you with a black marker to darken the inner and outer CD edges. Voodoo!!
>Will the treatment wash off if you clean the disc with dish detergent or Windex?
Yes. Audience also recommends reapplying the gel again after 6 months or so.
>How big an improvement did you notice between treated and untreated discs?
This is a relative thing, what I may percieve as a significant change you may feel is either low or non-exsistant. To be honest, I was ready to return the stuff unopened because they took so long to get the product to me (I bought mine a while back when they were just getting going). After listening to a couple of CDs I felt it was worth the $40. You look at the bottle and assume that it's one of those products that probably costs them about 20Â¢ to make, and if you could only figure out *what's* in there...
At first I felt the price was on the expensive side, after listening for a while I feel the cost is not only justified, I'd probably go crazy if I ran out!
>Why the heck did you treat your tv?
Look, my TV is not sitting in globs of blue goo! I'm actually *very* careful about how much I use, but I was willing to spare a small amount just once on my 36" screen. I have kids, so I've needed to treat the screen more than once. Feel free to think I'm nuts. Hoo Hoo!!
