PFO 2008/10

Being a music lover and affording the gear to be able to really try to reproduce what
musicians were trying to do are t two phrases that are not usually synonymous with
each other. Also as a reviewer who has a real world budget for this hobby puts me in
a difficult position! While reviewing every expensive esoteric cable known to man
(which I’ve done on occasion) can be a lot of fun, it always comes down to what I can
really afford to put into my system.

HiFi World 2008/10

FURUTECH DEMAG £1,245 In my column In September’s HHFI World, I covered a range of gadgets that claimed to demagnetise both your vinyl and CDs. Magnetic effects on both black vinyl and CD media have now proven to be a factor in degrading sound quality. Certainly, when I made comparative tests with ‘The Talisman’ from US-based Walker Audio, priced at £200 (www. audiophilecandy.com) and Bedini’s ‘Ultra Clarifier Quadri Beam’, priced at £225

DeMag” etwa ver- mochte Dinge zu ent- magnetisieren, von de- nen man zuvor gar nicht wusste, dass sie auch nur den Hauch magnetisch sind. CDs zum Bei- spiel. Und das funktioniert ver- blüffenderweise tatsächlich, be- handelte Tonträger oder Kabel klingen danach wie entschlackt. Der DeStat arbeitet anders.

Soundstage 2008/07

There are opposing views regarding the importance of the phono cable in an analog playback system.
Advocates for this unassuming length of wire point out the minute signals coming from a phono cartridge —
measured in fractions of a millivolt for low-output moving-coil cartridges — and thus the opportunity for all
manner of noise to muck things up. Naysayers will also point to those teeny-tiny signals, proclaiming that
anything so small doesn’t need a specially designed cable for transmission — and, by the way, cables don’t
make a difference anyway.

Furutech’s flagship Reference III cables are of the thick, weighty and slightly unwieldy kind that suggests performance to high-end standards and a price to match. That’s not a bad thing: after all, when you are spending lots of hard-earned cash on pieces of wire that are supposed to make your system sound better, you want something that doesn’t only sound as good as promised, but also tangibly looks and feels expensive.
