The Digital Lens was developed long before the likes of Geoff Kait (Machina Dynamica) realized a major problem was/is the laser light scatters all around the insides of the transports
I remember some 20 years ago, a company that sold small metal caps that fit over the laser with small holes to focus the laser (like an aperture). I used one on my TOP LOADING Audio Alchemy transport, and later on my TL CEC transport. They worked extremely well
Geoff's New DARK Matter is a smokey plastic type wafer material that one cuts to size and affixes to the cd tray. By far the best $39 one can spend to improve digital sound. That, plus his springs which minimize vibrations, placed under each component is another giant leap
