Sorry I was doing some catch up reading on this thread and a page back someone asked about demagging cd's and lps'.
I do both and yes the effect is the same if you use a MC or MM cartridge.
The better the cartridge the better the effect.
Demagging , to my ears, take the jumble out of the music and re-aligns things, sort of does some house cleaning.
No one has ever said they couldn't hear the improvement, regular earred folks and the golden ears, young and old male or female, they all notice that the sound became clearer.
Why it works is really of no concern to me.There are explanations out there for folks who are serious enough to find an answer.I figure it's up to those folks to seek it out not for me to spoon feed them.
But of course they would have to be serious about this.
But as nice as it is to read about power cords and demagging etc,it's necessary to listen for yourself and then come to a conclusion.
I can no more say that you will hear the difference as I can say that you can not.
It's something you have to be willing to experience, and for some folks that's asking too much.
It's so much easier and simpler to take it out of the box plug it into the wall with the attached wires, and play some tunes.
Ahh the simpler times, I was there.
Enjoyed the music.
Now my system is more complex.I had to invest time and money into it.
And what I found out was that the music I was listening to was also more complex and filled with detail I didn't know was even missing before.
