There is certainly a limit though. Concepts that fail the most basic of logic don't really belong.

Inmesurable? I do not think so, they are nonexistent that is different...And they rely in the naive guys who purchased them relying on their names, andbeleiving that they will get any benefit...

And unfortunatelly for the opposed field, I do have tried them, and I have them here, and all of them are IMO snake oil, they do absolutelly nothing, period... But also IMHO you do not need to even try them to arrive to such conclussions, OK?

I will send all of all those CDs to the OP, about five in total, CDs that were released by different companies, Sheffield Labs, Cardas, Densen, Ayre, MCM, Wireworld, etc...I got them as gifts from my friends, they believe that all what says "audiophile" on the label, is relevant to me...LOL...And he could said here later on what kind of differences or improvements those will do in his system...

Some of them have tones that are useful for testing purposes, and setting equipment, etc...Pink noise is useful for tunning home listening rooms, theaters etc...but other than that...a total scam to my ears...

This is one of this forums greatest faults, being almost entirely subjective and supporting fairy-tale claims of people hearing what cannot be heard. The outright banning of DBT pretty much sums up the forum's inefficacies as far as amplification, so-called "tweaks", and cables go, as well as being the nail in the coffin for anyone trying to argue objectivity. This forum still rocks for headphones though!

I don't think George Cardas himself is snake oil, he seems affable enough; however, I think the whimsical products he peddles certainly are. Alas, I have bought this CD, though I doubt I will be proved otherwise.



I did not see in the op's title "CARDAS - AYRE ACOUSTICS (IBE) BURN-IN CD... Has anyone tried this??? where he was looking for an argument, I don't see anyone else arguing, seems to me you are looking for an argument for the sake of arguing. Or are you simply looking for attention?

"When a product claims to do the impossible, you don't need to purchase and test it yourself to know that it will not change anything." So what do you hope to achieve with your purchase of this disc, do you not even take or listen to your own advise???

Where in this thread has anyone made fairy-tale claims about what they heard or didn't hear with this disc? All I see are claims from a nay-sayer who has zero experience with the mentioned product. No one as yet has said they have or use the disc

The forum's inefficacies, in my opinion, are people who jump in and assert their unexperienced views (which it seems they don't even follow themselves) where ever and when ever they can, thus making people who have experience and do know what they are talking about not post their experiences

assuming he did actually purchase the disc



ol' george is laughing his butt off, I'm certain, all while rolling in giant piles of money! He's a clever scam artist, he even got the most die-hard objectivist to fall prey to his evil ploy! The horror! It's like we're slipping into the dark ages!

Me too, so I offered him the chance to try them free of charge, as well as I did...they will be on the way on Monday, he could choose to post his findings later on, or not...I already packed them

Do you even read half the posts I made? I never, I repeat, NEVER, made any insinuation that George Cardas is a scam artist. He obviously believes in his products. I also bought the CD to definitively prove that the product he created does nothing, even though he thinks it does (he can't prove himself otherwise because he doesn't even know how the product works himself). Make sense now?

To all who say we need to try something for ourselves...what about gas additives?

Sure, there have been tests in which they were disproved, but the cars they tested them in didn't cost enough!

We should all try the gas additives for ourselves before we call them snake oil!

Did I sum up your realm of thinking correctly?

What have you been smoking? What are you talking about????

The question was "CARDAS - AYRE ACOUSTICS (IBE) BURN-IN CD... Has anyone tried this"
The only one who has answered is Sovkiller.

What does this have to do with gas additives and cheap or expensive cars???

Another inexperienced kid telling us how things he's never tried can't work.

I'm so tired of people like you trashing threads, and I can't believe you've called Cardas a "pseudo-science and gimmicks company".
Nothing could be further from the truth and it shows exactly how much you DON'T KNOW!

Congratulations punk, you just made the list.

Some gas and oil additives work, and some of those CD tracks are useful, but in the case than gas additives were also an scam, two wrongs do not make a right...

Nope!

Should I?

I've already come to the conclusion that you're going to post the same tired diatribe, no matter the topic, no matter the technology or gear in question. Am I wrong? Do you ever change your position?

AFAIK, there are no gas additives that make you get more MPG or make your car run cleaner. In fact, they make it appear as if your car has worse MPG, as they displace potential gasoline, but your car would assume that additive was gas...I think you get where I'm going.
