Thanks, Kenster!Well, you certainly seem eminently qualified to explain exactly what the RIO does. Personally, it's way over my head, but I find one thing interesting: If it's working on eliminating electrostatic charges, then why do destatic devices like the Walker Talisman and AR's own RD-3 seem to build on the benefits of the RIO? Wouldn't they operate on the same principle and thus be redundant?
I HAVE tried it on DVDs, but not vinyl. (It would be tough to do on LPs, because they're so much bigger than CDs, and the RIO isn't nearly big enough for the whole disc to lie atop of--not even close, in fact.) It seems to have an equally significant effect on video, yielding greater color contrast, deeper blacks, and better edge definition. The audio on DVDs is also better, of course.
That Tourmaline link was very interesting. Thanks. I don't know exactly how AR utilizes it in the RIO, but however it's used, the net effect is positive.
