Fixed the skipping on my DVD PlayerSep 11, 2009
By Diana De Avila
"MS Gkygrl"
I have a Sony DVD player that is probably 8-10 years old. I have noticed that even on new DVD's, it was beginning to skip. I had heard of VCR head cleaners but never knew that there was such a device for for DVD and CD players. When I was playing my new Season 5 "The Office" DVD and the first one was skipping, I was frustrated. I took a look at the DVD and made sure there were no overt scratches or dirt on it. There were not. The problem kept happening.
I decided to go online and Google the issue and hit an audio forum where they mentioned DVD and CD drive cleaners. After that, I was off to Amazon to do my research and buy the one that had good reviews.
Well, this thing WORKS and it fixed my problem to a tee. I am going to use it on other devices like my MacBookPro and in my car. The cleaner has a cool set of audio tests that allow you to ensure your audio system is set up and balanced correctly. Although I did not really need this, I could see how this functionality alone would make the Allsop Drive Cleaner worth the money. The audio tests were very thorough.
5 stars all the way.

Solved my problemJun 14, 2009

My MacBook would not burn DVDs. OS X said "The disc can't be burned, because the device failed to calibrate the laser power level for this media." Reading was OK and so was burning CDs.
I bought this product, cleaned the lens on my drive, and now I am able to burn DVDs without problems.

Worked perfectly in my Macbook ProOct 15, 2009
By Laurel A few months after I bought it, my Macbook Pro started getting touchy about burning CD/DVDs. Then, months later it stopped reading program DVDs. Movies and audio CDs stopped working soon after. I barely used the drive, though, so I didn't much care.
At least, I didn't care until now, when I'd like to upgrade iLife and OS X... So, I did some research and discovered that the progressive loss of ability I had probably meant that the lens was dirty, and a cleaning disc would be the answer.
I looked at all the options available, and the Allsop Carbon-Edge is one of the few that doesn't say "not for slot loading drives." As long as the disc wasn't going to get stuck in there and rattle around forever, I figured I didn't have much to lose.
You go through a grounding ritual with touching little pads before you insert the cleaning disc. (Probably silly, but did it anyway.) It spun up, with only slightly more vibration than a normal CD. And a few moments later iTunes started ripping the tracks. :) Oops. Hadn't used it in so long I forgot!
Stopped the ripping, played the intro and the cleaning track until it said to stop. Skipped the rest of the audio tracks. Works great now!

Worthed every cent!!Sep 10, 2009

I wanted to buy a very good cleaner for my DVD and CD players and wanted something good. I happened to come across Allsop Carbon-Edge Cleaner and figured it would do the job. It was something new on the market and I valued my players. So, I purchased the product and when it arrived, I placed it to good use. Moments later, my DVD and Multi-disc CD players are working like a charm. It seems as though they are new! Keep in mind I kept these two products in a storage shed for better part of two years! So you know moisture and change in climate can take it's toll on electronics. Well, thanks to Allsop Carbon-Edge they are operating perfectly. And the process to clean is only 3 or 4 minutes plus this disc will help you to adjust your surround sound speakers. A good buy - indeeed!!

The one you needMay 12, 2009
By M. Thrasher I've tried various other cleaning disks, but none worked as well or as efficiently as this one. The only one you'll need.
