Furutech De Stat or Talisman?

Thanks for the feedback!

I own the Furutech Destat.
Its quite bulky & cumbersome to use.
The"ON" button is at an awkward position/location.
Then when you have to flip the cd, it becomes awkward to use again.
Anyone out there with better ideas? I am all ears.

The Talisman did nothing for me regarding static, which we have alot of during our winter months (northeast USA). My Zerostat discharges static much better.

The Talisman does have a beneficial demagnifying effect on media, cables and tubes, but IME a small tools demagnifier does a better and more permanent job for less than half the price. Mine cost $70 and is far stronger than the Talisman. Its magnetic field is generated by a large, A/C-powered electromagnet, just like the Furutech DeMag. Not as pretty, no audiophile label, but superior to the Talisman in other respects.

Yes, two different products for two different issues as Doug said. There is a difference between magnetic charges and static charges. So you really could use both products. I have the same $70 tool that Doug uses and a Zerostat. Again, each addresses a different issue with vinyl, IMO.

I use both and the DE Stat is a work horse for my vinyl. It works like a charm but goes through batterys i guess i use it to much.
