Furutech has a long history of using innovative technology to enhance audio quality. Their top-of-the-line double-shielded α (Alpha)-OCC conductor interconnects, power cords, and digital cables, known as Furutech Reference III, are built with exceptional precision and utilize Formula GC-303 antimagnetic EMI-absorbent modules to provide superior resolution, increased dynamics, and outstanding performances from all components. Additionally, all connectors are rhodium-plated to ensure optimal signal transfer.
α (Alpha) Conductor Is Composed Of Fine PCOCC Wire Strands Treated With Furutech’s α (Alpha) Cryogenic and Demagnetizing Process
Features
- Double-shielded α (Alpha)-OCC Conductors eliminate radiated noise
- Formula GC-303 Antimagnetic EMI-Absorbent Modules surround each cable
- High performance beautifully engineered rhodium plated RCA [FP-106 (R)]
- Center filament pin [FP-106 (R)] a high-contact work of engineering art composed of nonmagnetic rhodium-plated phosphor bronze with Teflon dielectric
- RCA connector backbone composed of nonmagnetic rhodium-plated eutectic cast brass with beautifully-finished nonmagnetic brass outer locking shell.
- Shield 1 0.12 mm α (Alpha) conductor wire braid
- Shield 2 special EMI-absorbent Formula GC-303 Modules for superior noise isolation
- Insulated with air-foamed HDPE reducing capacitance and damping vibration
- Results in greater resolution, clarity, powerful dynamics, and an ultra-quiet soundstage in which music develops more fully without artificial upper-frequency “presence region” glare.
- GC-303 allows a deeper, tighter bass to form a solid foundation for the rest of the frequency range, better defining the original recording’s venue. Natural, unforced detail reveals nuance and energy for an engaging musical experience.
- FP-106(R) RCA connectors
- Made in Japan
