LASERBASE The patented technology of the LASERBASE was developed for laser disc players and significantly enhances the performance of the Compact Disc format. The LASERBASE reveals the disc encoded message without the additive internal resonances produced by the CD player. In effect, the CD player is prevented from seeing its own reflection. This principle was first developed for isolating laser beams from turbo-pump vibrations. These laboratory laser experiments proved the validity of the elastomeric material suspensions by showing greatly increased accuracy in the resulting laser beam measurements. The Compact Disc benefits from the discovery of this phenomenon and yields its accurate message of the digitally recorded signal. The difficulty in making the precise technology of digital processing more accurate is achieved by the eloquent simplicity of the LASERBASE. Although the notion that Compact Disk players are immune from vibration and sound true under most conditions is prevalent, the LASERBASE reveals that this is not the case. With the LASERBASE we are rewarded with the ability to hear the improved playback performance from Compact Disc recordings. The LASERBASE is constructed of two concentric rectangular steel tubular frames in telescoping relation to each other. One frame is elastically suspended from the other by means of polyurethane rings. This allows the Compact Disc player to be mechanically decoupled from the reflective table or shelf support it is resting on. This produces a highly effective filtering network that screens out reflections which would otherwise be directed back into the Compact Disc player. Furthermore, the steel tube frames are damped internally with a rubber insert and externally with a resilient vinyl sleeve for quiet performance. Although all the components of the LASERBASE play an important role in the improvement of Compact Disc sound reproduction, the most vital (and expensive) components are the highly resilient polyurethane elastomeric rings. The physical properties of these specially formulated polyurethane rings set the highest standard in the industry for toughness, tear strength, resilience and tolerance. They offer excellent abrasion resistance and last up to ten limes longer than the most commonly used polyurethane rings. No fillers are used in the molding of these rings so that the resilience and elasticity of the elastomer is preserved. Only in this manner can the user of the LASERBASE be assured that the rings will have an adequate modulus of elasticity after many years of service. This accounts for the high cost of this vital component of the LASERBASE. The mechanics of nature are simple and the LASERBASE describes them simply. It gives the Compact Disc player an environment in which it can process and reproduce its information with the least amount of error.
