I have owned the Furutech DeMag since 2009. One of the best tweaks I have purchased over the years for my analog system. The carbon that is added to the vinyl formula to produce black vinyl is where the record gets the magnetic property from. It i... 
1 Micron in-Water Filter for Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Tanks
I cleaned 400 records before I changed the filter. My records have been well cared for over the years, so I am not cleaning filthy records. If I buy used records I always look for mint or mint- condition. Like I stated, this filter has worked grea... 
Vinyl static ionizers who's used them?
@mikelavigne  I have a question about your findings using the Destat III on records. You stated that after pre-treating with the Destat III and playing the record on your turntable the effects only last about 5 to 10 minutes. How were you able to... 
Vinyl static ionizers who's used them?
@lewm Sorry I am confusing you, let me try again. I am going to just get an album out of my collection at random and perform all of the step listed here. Placing the record right out of the sleeve (anti-static) onto the turntable give a reading...

Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure
I recently purchased the Nenuphar V2 speakers. WOW what an amazing speaker. I only have about 30 hrs of play on them but I am very impressed with the sound I am hearing. When I first hooked them up, they sounded dry and flat, not very musical. Sou...

From Benz to?
About 7 years ago I was also looking for something different from the Benz LP. I tried the Ortofon Windfeld and never looked back. I would highly recommend that cartridge and yes 68db gain setting will work fine with 0.2mV

Does Furutech lose effectiveness over time?
@lucapelliccioli  I measure static after the record is cleaned. I use an ultrasonic cleaning method also. I only clean my records once, not every time I play them. They are stored in anti-static record sleeves. Most pops and clicks are from dirt a...
