Crystal Discs are the pinnacle of artisan digital musical production and reproduction. Precisely manufactured glass replaces a CD's polycarbonate cover and a 24K gold 'stamper' photo polymer replaces refractive cast-aluminum substrate to deliver unparalleled playback accuracy with substantially reduced birefringence, noise, and jitter. The Impex Crystal Disc CD is mastered by Bernie Grundman under Jennifer Warnes' personal supervision.
Each of the strictly limited 100 discs is made by hand, one at a time, and individually number-stamped. A unique booklet and package further increases exclusivity — and collectability.
The Crystal Disc comes in a large black wood box with duel magnet opening. One side clearly displays the 24k gold Crystal Disc and the other side displays the booklet and includes a copy of UHQCD version of Famous Blue Raincoat certificate of authentication from manufacture.

What is Crystal Disc?
Crystal disc, Compact Disc using glass substrate, is made to realize the sound quality which is 'equivalent' to the master sound source. For this purpose, Crystal disc is fabricated by Memory Tech's Laser Disc technology cultivated over many years with using the best selected materials.
- The use of glass substrate instead of conventional polycarbonate substrate. As the reflective layer, gold is adopted in exchange for conventional aluminum.
- For pit transcription, Photo Polymerization process (2P process) using a metal stamper is adopted. This process makes pit transcription highly precise compared with the conventional injection molding process. The technology of 2P process was cultivated by Memory Tech's production of test discs for calibrating industrial optimal pick up heads.
- Surface flatness of glass substrate is much superior to the conventional CD. Glass substrate is hardly influenced by the variation of temperature and humidity. Furthermore, the absence of birefringence coming from the optical uniformity of glass substrate realized signal with extremely low noise and low jitter.
