Furutech destat III Eliminates Static Charge for Cleaner, More Refined Playback
Furutech destat III Static Charge Eliminator is a compact, handheld device engineered to remove static electricity and dust from your audio and video media, ensuring cleaner, quieter playback across vinyl records, CDs, DVDs, and even components. This third-generation model enhances performance with 30% more ionising power than its predecessor, delivering superior charge neutralisation in just 15 seconds per treatment.
Furutech destat III Enhances Audio Performance with Precision Ionisation
Furutech destat III is a static charge eliminator designed to dramatically reduce unwanted noise and distortion caused by static build-up on analogue and optical media. Static interference compromises signal purity and resolution—especially in high-fidelity systems—by attracting dust and introducing pops, clicks, and veiling in playback. This model uses an advanced Balanced Ion Flow Generator, which emits a controlled stream of both positive and negative ions, neutralising static charge instantly and effectively.
The integrated high-velocity fan dislodges dust while ion flow neutralises electrical charges on LPs, compact discs, and digital video discs. The result is a noticeably improved soundstage, tighter low-frequency response, and cleaner transients.
Furutech destat III Applies to Media, Equipment, and System Cables
Furutech destat III static eliminator goes beyond just media treatments. Audiophiles can target charge accumulation across their entire audio chain. Use the destat III on tonearms, cartridges, amplifier chassis, speaker enclosures, and cabling—interconnects, power cords, speaker cables—all benefit from the reduction of electrostatic fields, especially in dry environments.
Applying it to metal accessories such as record clamps or platter mats further reduces noise caused by static induction. Even video displays and media consoles can be treated for a visibly and audibly cleaner experience. To ensure component safety, always switch devices off before treatment.
Furutech destat III Offers Portable, Ergonomic Static Elimination in Seconds
Furutech Series III deStat handheld unit is engineered for user-friendly operation, requiring just one button press to initiate its treatment cycle. The process lasts only 15 seconds, making it quick enough for daily use across entire collections or critical listening sessions.
Weighing only a few hundred grams and powered by four standard AA batteries, this portable static eliminator can be easily used with one hand. The ergonomic body offers balanced handling whether you’re hovering it over a delicate vinyl surface or passing it along speaker cables. A built-in safety circuit ensures that the ion generator poses no electrical hazard during operation.
Furutech destat III Builds on Award-Winning Legacy of Static Control Innovation
Furutech’s destat III static remover evolves from a lineage of critically acclaimed models, retaining the core innovation of the original Destat while enhancing its ionising strength and fan efficiency. With endorsements from leading audiophile reviewers including Stereophile and Soundstage, previous iterations have been praised for their immediate, perceptible improvement in playback fidelity.
Michael Fremer noted its effectiveness in removing static cling, while John Potis of 6moons confirmed its “permanent residence next to [his] turntable.” The destat III continues this tradition with upgraded internals for long-term reliability, efficiency, and superior noise reduction.
Furutech destat III Belongs in High-Fidelity Turntable and Disc Playback Systems
Furutech destat III static charge eliminator is an essential tool for vinyl enthusiasts, disc collectors, and high-resolution digital media users seeking optimal performance. By mitigating static interference, it restores clarity, dynamics, and detail in any playback chain.
Whether paired with a flagship turntable, a high-performance Blu-ray player, or reference-quality interconnects, this tool helps preserve the integrity of the original recording. In finely tuned systems, the sonic uplift can be as meaningful as an equipment upgrade—without altering the signal path or adding noise.
Its role in analogue system care and disc preservation makes the Furutech destat III indispensable in both domestic listening rooms and professional mastering setups.
