"Bedini Ultra Clarifier", does it really work??


I got into a pissing contest over this question on another forum site. I would like to get opinions from those of you that have the Clarifier or even those of you that have heard a red book CD spun on the Bedini Clarifier.

Set up,
When I clean a red book CD, with the Clarifier, I always do both sides. If my memory serves me right that is what the instruction manual says to do. I also let the CD spin the full 45 seconds on each side.

I contend the Bedini Ultra Carifier does indeed work. How it works I haven't the foggiest idea.

The sure way to prove it works is to take two red book CDs of the same artist and Title. Listen to both to make sure they sound the same. Spin one in the Clarifier and do an A/B comparison of the two discs. Let me note here I realize that not all CDs are created equal. If a red book CD already sounds good thru your loud speakers then the clarifier will not make a difference. Or very little at best. But to the other extreme if a CD sounds compressed, bassi, bass loose muddy, highs rolled off, a dead sounding CD, The Clarifier will make an improvement.
Thanks for your input.

You've got to have a real double/triple blind test to prove it works. You also have to have the volume levels match. I would think any difference in volume, especially a slight increase in volume on the clarifier side, would lead to a favorable result.
If you do that you wouldn't have any differences if you did that. You need a real switch unit to do that. I still haven't seen real double blind test results for any of these snake oil products. If it works for you great. My will always be that it doesn't work until I see a real test.
actually you're right. I was thinking of comparing two cd players from a discussion in another forum. I still haven't seen a real double/triple blind test of this. anyone have any links?
