Re: I tested @ 12x, 20x, 24x for example

Hi

sweet spot is exactly the right word for what I assumed, is happening. Still, I was a bit surprised, that with drives, where EAC offered ripping speeds of 18x, 24x before the "max." selection, would rip better @ max., which might be something like 28 or 30x then... At those high speeds, even smallest excentricities or "wobbles" on the disce would put enormeous stress on the laser/adjustment and the possibilities of wrong focus or "out of the lane"-reading errors increase exponentially (that was my theory...), so I thought, something like a more laser-friendly 18x or 12x may be better...
My NEC-drive for example only offers a selection in EAC of 10x, 20x and max., and it seemed to read (or not recognize???) problematic spots better at max. than at 20x or 10x...
