[ARSCLIST] Cedar

Hi All:

What is the /current/ view of the CEDAR AUDIO duo products?

A Google (R) reveals many older reviews that are perhaps not so  
current.  Primary aim is to restore up old 78s etc but it should also  
be good for "newer" vinyl and tape (both compact casette and reel).

As a Mac shop, presently ClickRepair (http://www.versiontracker.com/ 
dyn/moreinfo/macosx/27231) has been very good but obviously it has  
some limitations.

The "typical" problem with many computer programs, both on PC and  
Mac, is the GUI/design is somewhat "strange", a sort of dumbed down  
interface (cannot really explain what I mean, but large turney wheels  
and bubbles everywhere makes them look like a children's nursery set).

Cedar processed a couple of samples for me as a demo (I took some  
records off the shelf at random so not to influence the condition)  
and to be honest I didn't notice a dramatic change or improvement.


Thanks in advance !
