FURUTECH FI-50 RHODIUM IEC MAINS PLUG

Furutech’s Pure Transmission FI-50 Piezo Ceramic series IEC mains plug bodies and housings feature several breakthrough
construction techniques. A multilayer nonmagnetic stainless steel and carbon fibre shell incorporates a special damping and insulating acetal copolymer. Furutech settled on stainless and carbon fibre for the outer housing after extensive listening sessions with Japanese industry figures and audiophiles.

The body of the connectors combines two “active” materials: Nano-sized ceramic particles and powdered carbon. (Only nano-sized ceramic particles effectively couples with carbon powder.) Nylon and fiberglass are incorporated as well forming an extremely effective, well damped, mechanically and electrically non-resonant connector body. That’s correct, they’re electrically damped as well.

Piezoelectric effects are the key. Furutech’s breakthrough in design and materials is based on employing nano-sized polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramic particles exhibiting electro-generative properties; mechanical pressure creates an electrical charge forming a bridge between electrical and mechanical oscillation.

Carbon powder exhibits thermal-conductive characteristics that interact with the charged ferro-ceramic particles converting their energy into heat that’s conducted away and released from the surface of the connector body!

These carefully chosen and tested “active” materials mechanically and electrically damp the connector and receptacle as they “interconvert” thermal, mechanical, and electrical energy for the finest Furutech Pure Transmission signal imaginable.

We try and keep on top of our pricing, but it's a mammoth task for one person. So, if you see this product offered cheaper elsewhere, or you are offered it for less elsewhere (proof will be required) and you feel like supporting an extremely independent retailer, do get in touch and we will do our very best to match or beat wherever we can. We can't promise to do so, as there may some extenuating circumstances where we just wouldn't be able to, but we'll always do what we can.

Needs to be like for like - new for new, ex-demo for ex-demo, same colour and specs etc.
