RE: Some new impressions of various CD fluids, including BlueMaxx

Hi, Calloway:

Yes, I did try the Maxx on top of the Esoteric. Initially I was afraid to, for fear of causing some kind of adverse reaction between the two products, but I did anyway. To my ears, it had the same effect on the Esoteric that it did alone: smoother highs and more natural sounding mids. However, it did something with vocals that I didn’t care for—it seemed to rob them of some air, clarity, and presence. Can’t really explain it any other way. Strangely, when I sprayed Shine Ola on the disc, that presence/clarity/air returned. I really need to do some more experimenting over the next week, but still, I trust my gut instincts on this one. The Shine Ola seems to improve sonics, but with a very light touch that I prefer. The Maxx is a worthy product, though—and like I said, if it works in combination with the Jena for you, I’d definitely stick with that. Hope this helps.
