CD Stoplight was developed by researchers at Clear Image Audio looking for ways to passively reduce the bane of compact disc playback - jitter.
LOL... JITTER ? NO SUCH THING!
They postulated that if jitter could be reduced without any electronic intervention, it would sound better and could be produced at low cost to the consumer. What they discovered was a significant amount of stray laser light bounced around the inside of the CD itself. This stray light eventually finds its way back to the pick-up assembly, creating jitter.
LOL... JITTER ? NO SUCH THING!
Their solution was quite elegant - absorb the stray light. The product of their research was a recipe for a specially formulated acrylic coating that contained a mixture of inorganics and pigments that act as a very efficient absorber of stray laser light.
AudioPrism licensed the formulation, packaged it with a special applicator under the name CD Stoplight and the rest is audio history.
Most who have heard it agree it makes compact discs sound more neutral, less edgy and significantly more open. Treated discs take on a more "analog" presentation and tend to be considerably more musical.
I can't hear anything...
LET ME GET MY FUCKOSCOPE!

YOU SEE?
CD Stoplight is easy to use. Simply coat the outside edge of your compact disc with the purpose- designed tip, let it cure and you are ready to listen. CD Stoplight is nontoxic and has been chemically formulated not to harm compact discs. If properly applied, CD Stoplight will not flake, will not peel and will reduce jitter in your compact disc playback system.
LOL... YOU CAN'T REDUCE JITTER!
