Audio Selection Bitstream vs Auric Illuminator


We just used Audience Auric Illuminator intead of Audio Selections Bitstream as the Bitstream seems to be unavailiable in the U.S.

Go figure, Audience produces high end quality products and the Auric Illuminator is no exception.

Combined with the Audiodesk Lathe, the results were stunning.

Does anyone know of other products that can have such a large effect with CD performance??

I rip my CDs after treating them with essence of music. How's it possible that the treated rips sound way better than non-treated rips?

I'm not sure, but when I try to listen to the non-treated rips I can't bear to listen to them anymore.
I didn't know about the audio desk sound improver for beveling the CD. Will have to try that one day.

I'm in the process of treating of all of my CDs with EOM and then ripping them. Is dbpoweramp the best sounding ripper? I've been using XLD on the OS X.
