Quite some aspirations for this device. We already knew of

the theory behind why demagnetizing CDs nets audible results. The aluminum used


for the reflective CD layer is contaminated with ferrous impurities and thus

susceptible to magnetizing. Ditto for the ink used for printing the label. When


the CD spins at up to 500 RPM, these ferrous particles begin to act as magnets

as they are moving in a -- however small -- magnetic field. Let's assume that

after an hour's play, all magnetizable particles have activated. We'll thus

have a fair amount of magnets rotating inside a magnetic field. Little

imagination is required to appreciate that such magnets could have a

detrimental effect on all electronic circuits in the vicinity. As we have

reported in our article on copying CDs to improve their sound quality, a great

deal of the CD system is analog in nature and thus very much prone to external

influences such as moving magnetic fields.

Earlier versions of demagnetizers by Furutech like the RD-2

enjoyed very positive reviews and those who acquired them still seem to use

theirs. The sound clears up, the noise floor drops and the overall music

retrieved from the CD (or any other optical music storage format) becomes

airier, more relaxed and more detailed.

The RD-2 demagnetizer can also be used to demagnetize

cables. Due to its small size, however, one has to either coil the cable to

make it fit on the CD-sized machine or pass it through lengthwise in several

demagnetizing passes.

With the DeMag, Furutech attacks those practical drawbacks.

Due to the larger usable area, a batch of discs can now be treated at the same

time. Prepare a preselected collection of discs in advance and your home

concert can proceed without demagging after every disc. Secondly, cables can

now be treated in a more fashionable way. Except for ultra exotic stiffness

cables, most wires can be coiled into a 35cm diameter hoop without issue. The

large working surface also opens up treatment of other device that might get

magnetized in an audio system such as CD pucks for instance.
