Hi GC.

Key to the issue is the CDROM drive itself! If you don't have the best
drive, your results will suffer. Get yourself a Plextor Premium 2!
Your sound impressions imply jitter-effects to me.

I used to burn Gold-CDs. The result was definately better than the original.

Beside that

I applied CD-Cleaner
Cut the edges and painted the edges and all free areas black
"Demagnitized" the CD
And used a CD mat.
(And don't forget to install a green LED over your drive-head! Though I couldn't apply this tweak.)

Yes - I am not joking here!

Playing a CD without above is like listeing through a towel!

Luckily my CD days are over. Nothing is better than playback from RAM, even my highly modded CDs are far away from being competetive.

Cheers
Klaus
