The DF-2 provides controlled-heat perfect flattening for all your warped records, even those with only slight irregularities just enough to unsettle your cartridge and cause mis-tracking.

Warps And Listening

Warps are bad news no matter how you look at it. If the arm/cartridge remains parallel to the LP’s surface as with a flat record, VTA (Vertical Tracking Angle) remains unchanged throughout every rotation. Additionally, as the arm/cartridge tracks a warp on its upside, it places greater pressure on the stylus which changes VTF (Vertical Tracking Force) until the peak of the warp, whereupon the cartridge becomes “unloaded” with too little VTF on the way down.

Of course, all this muddles the sound, changing the tonal quality, imaging and soundstage characteristics of the cartridge. A flat record also tracks better with less distortion.

IMPORTANT:
The following LPs should not be treated in the DF-2:

1) LPs weighing less than 110g
2) Light LPs that were manufactured between 1973-74 (Oil crisis) weights range from 100g to 115g.
3) Flexi-Disc
4) EP versions
5) SP versions
6) LPs made of special materials
7) LPs made by Sheffield Lab

Although the Furutech LP Flattener successfully flattens most records, results cannot be guaranteed. GrooveWorks accepts no liability if the customer is, for whatever reason not satisfied with the results produced by the DF-2, or if a customer's LP is damaged.
