The Furutech destat III removes dust and static from your audio/video media and equipment – for ultimately refined sound.
The destat III is incredibly easy to use as it removes dust and static charge from audio/video media in just one 15 seconds treatment. High performance enthusiasts know that static charges on analog and optical media — LPs, CDs and DVDs – can lead to distracting noise and compromised sound. Simply place your media on the Destat III or hold it over your media of choice and press one button! The powerful fan removes dust while the Destat III’s Balanced Ion Flow Generator – releasing just the right balance of positive and negative ions – eliminates static.
Almost every system component benefits from eliminating its static charge. Use the destat III to remove static from the audio/video equipment itself – best to turn them off during treatment – plus power cords, line-level interconnects, speaker cables, and metal record clamps! Some household items may even benefit from static charge removal.
The destat III is small and efficient, powered by four AA batteries and is easily used with one hand. Each dust and static removal takes a mere 15 seconds. And there’s a safety circuit preventing shock from the Balanced Ion Flow Generator.
The destat III is third generation model of Furutech’s original and well received Destat – just one of Furutech’s many treatments for analog and digital playback systems.

— Michael Fremer Stereophile October 2007
“…The Furutech deStat turned out to be a piece of tremendous value and it’ll take permanent residence next to my turntable”

“I’ve been using it during the fall/winter of 2007, and have found that it is highly effective in zapping static build up and quiet in operation as well. Outstanding! Once more Furutech comes up with an audio accessory that is both effective and beautiful.” – David Robinson
“…the DeStat also works well for CDs and DVDs, reducing aural and visual `haze` and allowing some previously veiled detail to emerge. The DeStat audibly contributed to a lowering of my system`s noise floor and improved focus after destaticizing all of my cables.” – Wayne Donnely
“The DeStat II from the geniuses at Furutech is my kind of accessory. It will change the way you listen to music from day one. This is the very best audiophile accessory under $500 I have ever heard of. My highest recommendation!” – Robert Levi
“I was amazed at the difference in sound from a record after treatment by the Destat II. The background was obviously quieter and darker; and a lot of what I thought was surface noise completely disappeared along with distortions that I had always assumed were due to wear and tear.”
“What I can say is that it is musically just as effective (as the Destat II), bringing that added sense of life, color and presence to the reproduction that has kept me using my original long past its shelf life. The III is also quicker to use, a joy to handle and easier to store/accommodate. I now have a DeStat in each of the two main listening rooms, and I no longer have to cart my elderly original from one to the other, or live in fear of dropping it or having it keel over through plain wear and tear.” – Roy Gregory
“The Furutech deStat turned out to be a piece of tremendous value and it’ll take permanent residence next to my turntable…But even in my room I feel that the deStat has an important place as one of the smaller pieces needed to complete the digital puzzle. Good for digital, great for vinyl? That makes for a pretty solid universal recommendation. Go check one out and see if I’m right.” – John Potis
“The easy-to-use deStat does the job in grand style, and will probably last as long as you can buy batteries, or the fan motor burns out, or you do. It really works as promised on LPs, eliminating static cling; Furutech claims it also works with CDs, DVDs, LCD screens, and cables.” – Michael Fremer
“I treat the LP with a 15 second burst from the Destat III and then repeat my listening test and am happy to report that the clicks completely disappear after treatment…It also works extremely well with CDs and is even effective at reducing the attraction of cling-film! Overall, a bit pricy, but nonetheless effective.”
