By far my favorite new toy and the coolest accessory of the Rocky Mountain Audio Show, I bought this cutie right after Brian Kyle of Xtreme Cables and Xtreme AV, demo'd it for me. I now have it in my system and can now formally report. It's $605, not cheap, but reasonably priced based on what it does. It make CDs and Hybrids sound more musical …noticeably and definitively more musical. Plus, its incredibly sharp to look at and fun to use taking only 28 seconds to work. This is the "chip shot" accessory for curing digititus and emphasizing textures and depth in your favorite digital media.
The Rio is a tall chrome colored chimney holding tourmaline balls heated by a light. You place the CD on the top and push a button. After 14 seconds the fan goes off and you flip the CD and push the button again. The fan blows only negative ions on the CD reducing what sounds like jitter and distortions. This is an additive fix complimenting Extreme's own cleaner, and the demag process. It is a process all to itself. It is an amazing thing regardless of whether you do the other steps of not.

From the Rio website:
Characteristic of Tourmaline
Tourmaline is widely known to contain electric current (0.06mA) as the human and other living body. There is a report that tourmaline has an effect to improve the water quality, release infrared rays and other effects. One of the effect we paid an attention is that tourmaline releases negative ion, which is the same ion release from the natural world. This natural negative ions size is 10000/1 smaller compared with negative ion produced electrically. Natural negative ion is easier to penetrate into human body and other material, compared with electrically made negative ion.
Efficiency to release Negative Ion
We at ACOUSTIC REVIVE took a notice that tourmaline releases negative ion efficiently reacting from light, heat, vibration and other external stress. We succeeded to release natural negative ion efficiently from tourmaline by using halogen lamps ray and heat, furthermore using electric fans makes the air convec. For tourmaline catalyst, RIO-5 II uses the newly formulated ball which contains various ore to make sure RIO-5 II releases the maximum amount of natural negative ion.

Clearly the neatest accessory I saw at Rocky Mountain, it really is new and it really improves all digital reproduction. The Acoustic Revive RIO-5 Tourmaline Negative Ion Generator is the last and maybe the most significant step to great digital sound. After a liquid enhancer, the Rio is a wonderful compliment! It blasts the CD with negative ions and enhances the musical nature of the disk in about every way. Not subtle, I assure you. You try one disk and you are hooked. I heard improvements with both of my reference playback players. Highly recommended if you have an important digital collection like mine or are just plain sensitive to digital edge.
