Cartridge Demagnetization: Moving Magnet/Iron vs Moving Coil Processes

I too have a Fluxbuster...but be careful.  Contact your cartridge manufacturer to get their recommendation.  ..especially on high end cartridges with very thin wire with few windings...the flux can actually melt the wire and ruin the cartridge.  I contacted Ortofon who does not recommend the fluxbuster for that very reason.  Cardas has a test record that degauses the cartridge without the blast of electricity (even that small amount).

Yea, if you experience any excessive drowsiness, nausea, frequent headaches, ask your doctor if Cymbalta is good for ya.

I have to chime in here as, after many years of owning and enjoying both MM and MC cartridges, I no longer believe this demagnetization stuff at all. I had an Aesthetix Rhea for a couple of years and I used its demag function on both Lyra Delos and Helicon cartridges and not once could I detect any improvement in high end or other performance characteristics. And for MM cartridges, it’s nonsense.
