Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers


Has anyone done a comparison?  Many thanks!

Send me a video of an LP being attracted to (or repelled by) a powerful magnet, and I’ll cave. I don’t deny your experience but I do doubt the mechanism.

So you are suggesting that carbon per se can be magnetized or is inherently magnetic? If there is experimental evidence to support that hypothesis, it is publishable in a good science journal. I assume this refers to carbon that is not covalently linked in the molecular backbone of the vinyl itself, without which there is no vinyl.

Describe "staggering".  Since I don't believe LPs can be magnetized, I naturally don't believe I need to demagnetize them.

And magnetism is not due to a “charge”. Sorry.

I don’t know how the whole idea got started, but there are some believers for sure. Otherwise how could these companies sell demagnetizers for more than $2500?

Static electric charge and magnetism are two different phenomena, even though objects bearing opposite charges can attract each other. The Furutech is a deMAGNETizer, so I assume the other device is in the same category. First, you have to believe LPs need to be demagnetized. I don’t. So for me both devices are equally good at dealing with a problem that doesn’t exist.
