Well, what is the diffenence between saying that "the eye is more sensitive to 635 nm than 690 nm" and saying that "there is more of the light in the visible portion of the spectrum?" If it is true that lasers are not single frequency devices, that their spectrum extends over some bandwidth, then obviously some of the power of the 690 nm laser is being lost on the invisible portion of the spectrum - infrared - making the light we can see fainter. This explanation makes just as much sense as yours that is saying the eye is more sensitive closer to the green. The point I was trying to make before was that if it is true that the laser spectrum is not single frequency (narrowband), then it starts to make sense that things like green or black or violet coloring of the edges or surfaces of the CD change the sound.
