VDH states on their website that they do not recommend that any cartridge be subjected to de-magnetization.
can you describe the noise better. It's really hard to guess what it might be at this point.
i found the problem it was static charge built up on the table and with a wilson benesh carbon arm no ground source to go to, so the cartrige would pickup noise. the fix- atach a ground wire to the center bearing housing under the table what do you know -no more niose.
