\"gold_cd\"<\/p>\n

The reference CD-R, for all professional applications<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The most technically advanced dye in the world and to the Gold reflective layer, MAM Gold CD-R gives an optimum recording quality and an unequaled precision. These characteristics make MAM Gold the ideal professional CD-R for mastering and professional archiving.\u00a0 Available in 74 or 80 min.<\/span><\/p>\n

Storage for the ages<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike CD-Rs containing Cyanine, which lose their characteristics more quickly from exposure to light and heat, MAM Gold CD-Rs ensure stability, exceptional longevity and durability as well as added protection from the reinforced Diamond Coat protection layer. Accelerated aging tests show that MAM Gold can be used as a reliable storage media for more than 300 years.\u00a0 All of the main components in the MAM Gold CD-R are very stable in the environment; plastic (polycarbonate), Phthalocyanine dye and gold (it NEVER oxidizes).<\/span><\/p>\n

Increased Recording Speed<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

MAM Gold CD-Rs guarantee a perfect recording compatibility up to 52X, allowing an additional time saving for all users, while preserving an absolute reliability in storage and retrieval of data. MAM CD-Rs media are compatible with all recorders and readers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Note:\u00a0 All MAM CD-R is rated 4x to 52X speed except Digital Audio which is 1X to 12X. For real-time recording please use our standard digital audio or Pro Audio Gold.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

ARCHIVE CDR<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Longest Lived Recordable Media Available<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The MAM Archive CD-R is a high performance recordable disc, providing longevity and durability far in excess of conventional CD-R media. Every MAM Archive disc uses robust GoId-on-Gold\u00ae construction to provide the maximum resistance to environmental degradation. Long-term applications such as backfile conversion, e-mail archiving, and storage of classified correspondence can benefit from the Archive CD-R’s strict quality control and patented Phthalocyanine dye (tha-lo-cy-a-neen) formula, which offers storage life well in excess of 100 years.\u00a0 There is not a more stable, more reliable media for long term storage available today.\u00a0 Only paper lasts longer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Compatibility<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Not all CD drives are created equal. Although drive manufacturers need to conform to a basic set of standards for manufacturing, there are subtle differences in how well the “pickups” are able to handle the reflected signals from CDs. MAM CD-R has the highest reflectivity in the industry, which improves the accuracy of the player read-back.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because MAM’s dye formulation has remained unchanged for over 9 years, the drive manufacturers know what to expect when designing CD drives. That’s why MAM media works in any type of drive or player. (Other competitors need to change their dye formulations to accommodate different writing speeds. Other additives are used to improve resistance to UV light and heat.)<\/span><\/p>\n

MAM CD-R exhibits extremely consistent signal performance across the entire CD. Because of MAM’s attention to detail, our molding process results in discs that are flatter than the competition.<\/span>
\n While all discs are slightly warped, if they are warped beyond a certain tolerance, drives can have problems during playback. Temperature variations in your car can cause discs to warp more than usual, so it helps to start out with the flattest disc possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

More sensitive to the writing laser<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

When you “burn” a CD-R, your writer creates “pits” in the dye layer that make up the 0’s and 1’s for digital recording. MAM\u2019s Phthalocyanine dye reacts more quickly to the writing laser than other dyes. Because our dye reacts in a “burst” mode instead of a “melt” mode as with other dyes, sharper pit edges are created. These sharper edges are easier for CD players to read, so more faithful sound reproduction is possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Naturally resistant to damage from UV light<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Music CDs go with you wherever you want to hear your favorite tunes. That often includes environments such as your car or outdoor activities that are not very friendly to ordinary CD-Rs. MAM\u2019s patented Phthalocyanine dye is more resistant to UV light than dyes used by our competitors. While other dyes are very reactive to UV light unless “stabilizers” are added, MAM dye is naturally stable, so no additives are needed. This means that once your music is saved to MAM CD-R, you can be sure to hear it for along time to come.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat Resistance<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The advantages of a naturally stable dye don\u2019t end with UV resistance. MAM CD-R discs are also more resistant to damage from heat sources, whether natural or man-made. Of course, it gets very hot in you car. Add to that the heat that is generated in the player itself, and you come up with a combination that can be deadly to CD-R media produced with other dyes. Even the darker color of our competitors dyes contributes to the amount of heat absorbed by the disc.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
