Do you demag or destat your CDs/DVDS?

Just curious about these CD tweaks. The Furutech destat machine is tempting at around $350--I like their products. What is the story behind Furutech's discontinuation of their RD2 disc demagnetizing station? I see it was taken up by Acoustic Revive as the RD3, a supposedly improved version. Did it not prove effective by Furutech's standards, or did they let it go in favor of their much more expensive demagnetizer for vinyl and CD? Just wondering if the RD3 does work to improve sound. There isn't much mention of it in the past few years.

Sorry but i wanted to see lab results not review after all.

Can you tell difference between scientifically proven results and reviews? I can build hypothesis out of literally anything, but how can I prove?

Jea, you don't you even know a-bit of science? If not, math is simpler way to comprehend. Check my previous notes.

Not every physical phenomenon has an effect on our precious sound quality. THis is one of them in my opinion in that CD playback nowadays is perhaps the most reliable process in all of home audio in terms of producing consistent results, save except for playback of digital files in memory or even on magnetic disk storage.

Wait, those computer disks are magnetic!!!!! Audiophile alert!! :^)

GEof/Machina Dynamic considers this a problem. What more evidence is needed?
