Specifications:
There are three tracks on the Full System
Enhancer these cover:
Track 0.1: Full system burn-in &
demagnetisation.
Track 0.2: Full system burn-in &
demagnetisation with low level tones.
Track 0.3: Full system rejuvenation, including
demagnetisation tones.
Product Background & Overview
The IsoTek vision has always been to create high quality products that
improve the performance of a complete audio or home theatre system. This
has certainly been true of our award-winning range of power management
systems. The IsoTek Full System Enhancer furthers our commitment. The Full
System Enhancer will not only burn-in and demagnetises but also rejuvenates
your audio system allowing it to function at its optimum level.

Overview
It is important to exercise the system across the full range of frequencies and
amplitudes it may encounter in real life, and to this end the tones on this disc
have been devised to cover the audio band from top to bottom, also ensuring
that, for instance, high amplitude signals are combined with high speed ones.
There is good reason for the various signals and tones on this disc bearing
no relation, perceived or calculated, to music. At first sight, the problem of
burning in a music system may seem to call for some kind of signal that
resembles music in certain specifics but somehow ‘works faster’ in exercising
and/or settling down the various components within the system. But while such
a signal can be generated, it doesn’t burn equipment in very fast and doesn’t
address the rejuvenation function either.
We have looked at the problem from a slightly different perspective. At the
risk of oversimplifying a complex situation with a faintly absurd everyday
metaphor, what the equipment needs is a good aerobic workout with some
nice taut stretches and bends. In electronic terms, the required signal
features lots of high-speed activity coupled with some high-amplitude
excursions. All of these signals have been produced according to strict
mathematical criteria so as to place the greatest stress on the important parts
of a system - WITHOUT, it is important to note, endangering any part of it. If
this disc is played at normal listening levels (volume control set as for your
favoured listening material) there is NOTHING in it that will damage any
normal music system. Raising the volume level higher will NOT improve the
disc’s performance. If you play our disc at extremely high volume levels we will
not be held responsible for damage that may occur.
"Burn-in and conditioning CDs for Hi-Fi systems are not exactly news. But
IsoTek have taken note of all the various offerings and evolved perhaps the
most sensible and complete version available. Simple, sensible and
supremely cost effective, what more could you require?" Roy Gregory Hi-Fi+
Tracks: The Full System Enhancer features three tracks.
0.1 (30 minutes) and 0.2 (30 minutes) are similar, with the second being
optimised for systems with large loudspeakers and/or subwoofer(s). In
general, use 0.1 for most stand-mounted speakers, 0.2 for floor-standing
models, except perhaps the slimmest.
0.2 The differences are neither profound nor dangerous, but the benefits of
0.2, in the right situations, we have found to be audible. The last few minutes
of each track are intended specifically for system demagnetising and we DO
advise that playback of each track should be performed in full.
0.3 Track 0.3 (5 minutes) has been specifically developed as a quick ‘spruce-
up’ for the hi-fi, consisting of a little of the ‘hi-fi aerobics’ from the start or
Tracks 0.1 and 0.2 followed by a slightly less comprehensive demagnetisation
regime which, however, should be quite adequate to redress any ill effects
accruing over a day or two’s use or disuse.
