…The first disc I tried the deStat with was the Allison Krauss SACD Now That I’ve Found You – Collection [Rounder 11661-0325-6]. This is a well-recorded compilation of some of Ms. Krauss’s early recordings. The SACD is one of the best-sounding recordings in my collection. The instruments are clearly rendered and precisely located. Krauss's voice is ethereal. Yet after a quick ten-second zap with the deStat the disc opened up even more, allowing me to hear more of the recording's personality.

"There was more detail and clarity. The tonal accuracy of instruments improved ... each instrument sounded more realistic. The sound after treatment was more vivid, and the background was quieter... I realized I was hearing just as much high-frequency information after demagnetization, but a previously unrealized distortion had been removed. ... made each LP more pleasant to listen to ... another example of the listener not realizing a distortion was present until it had been removed."
