As it happens, a very long time ago, before the scales fell from my
eyes, a group of us actually did try a very carefully controlled
experiment involving 6 CDs from the same batch of pressings of Dave
Brubeck's 'Late Night Brubeck', played through Naim electronics into
Epos ES11 speakers ( the shop demo system of the guy who owned the
record store which naturally had lots of those discs). The 'green
penned' discs sounded exactly the same as the untreated discs -
although a couple of the original batch were rejected because for no
known reason they did not sound the same as the other four.
Scarpitti's claim is extraordinary at best.


The Stax Lambdas allow one to hear things that most transducers do
not. What is 'extraordinary' is their clarity. With these devices, I
can hear the difference on some CD's, with the green-pen treatment.

Can you also hear the effects of demagnetization and Armor All treatment?
Enid Lumley heard effects produced by the position of her kitchen water
faucet.
