Cartridge "demagging"


I currently own a Sumiko Fluxbuster Cartidge Demagnifier and a Shelter 90X moving coil cartridge. I have heard some arguments against using an active system such as the Fluxbuster in that it can eventually harm the cartridge. It does make things sound better but I am concerned I am doing damage. Any thoughts?

I just got a VDH Black Beauty about 4 months ago. I've had Audioquest cart demagger and Gryphon system dmagger for years. I stopped demaggin the cartridge. Van den Hul explains why you shouldn't and a lot more on his web site, most of which is over my liberal arts educated head. Cartridges are enough black art without me second guessing someone with the experience of Mr. VDH.
