Cleaning an unscratched CD cannot change its sound. Reading data off a CD is pretty much an engineering problem solved. For an unscratched disc it is done (these days) without *any* error on most plays. If you hear a difference this means you are using a very antiquated CD mechanism, or the difference is in your head. I could listen to CDs on your system or a $1 million system but it won't change the facts. When I rip CDs at 4x or 8x speed on my two machines - each using different and very cheap CD mechanisms - I get bit-identical music files. The reliability of media reading is a fact of modern digital life. alekz;235745 Wrote: > > Can you hear the difference in your system? Can you on your system (double blind)?
