Even a mention of Arny in there!

Broken link - its always fun when the people who are trying to taunt you make incompetent posts. It all leads no where, anyway.

Does anyone measure how much a record gets magnetized?

Do you seriously believe that something delicate and esoteric such as LP magnetization could possibly be measured? ;-)

I've compared needle drops made before and after demagnetization and there are measurable differences - probably due to the fact that a LP is mechanically changed a little every time it is played.

Get a Metal Master Record to press Vinylrecords and lower your MC with Tonarmlift on it.
Fantastic effect.

Costed me an arm and a leg for this experience, so i never did it again.

I thought neutralizing static was tedious enough...MC was never considered in my systems. But having studied interconnects more now, I can see some benefits. However, I think I am getting the vinyl system sound benefits into the digital system now, I may not turn back as I originally thought.

 

[Groove T]

Vinyl is not magnetic, the paperlabels on them are not and the print ink is also not.

Vinyldemagnetizers are made for audiots who love to be fooled.

 

[marce]

Hope its not audiophile interconnect myths you've studied (cos most of it is BS and the rest is out of this world....), me I'd start with Heaviside...

 

[DPH]

Audiots, hahahah.

I was going to ask, do you need a SQUID to measure the magnetic field in Vinyl?

 

[billshurv]

nah just a milligauss meter.

 

[DPH]

Gotcha--wasn't sure the magnitude we're talking about.

I have used this on records, compact discs, and video discs. I have perceived some effect, but have found it lasts about 15-20 minutes. Fine for one side of an LP, but not long enough for a CD. I have to take the CD out about half-way through and do it again.

I was able to buy a demo for $100. I'm not sure I, personally, would have spent $275.

I have no idea if the Furutech does a better job.

Its even harder for this guy.... He only gets to listen to half a CD, maybe he should invest in a music server or a physiatrist.....

Big assumption there that I was trying to taunt you.

My favorite punch line, if you can't hear it you're deaf, but of course you can't hear it over youtube.

Great...

I would hope he does not mean literally.....

One of the oldest tricks in the book - claim that the failed attack was just innocent fun, especially when it blows up in your face.

 

[Groove T]

This Talisman has probably a built in dark energy power generator, since it needs no battery and no loading by cable or whatever. For 275$ a real bargain.

As is trying to wind someone up to get attention. I have a teenage daughter who does that all the time. Clearly age and maturity don't always run hand in hand.

Takeaway from that article: no-one involved apparently knew how to set up an experiment. Assuming it was reported accurately, which is a big assumption in Fremerworld.

No, in Cockney, that one is deaf alright : dum and a bum.

Fremerworld. I like that.
