Furutech Audio Reference III XLR High End Performance Interconnect Cable - Pair

Furutech Audio Reference III Interconnect Cable

Type: Hyper-Balanced Interconnects
Connectors: FP-601 M(R) and FP-602 F(R) XLR connector

Features

Top of the line double-shielded α (Alpha)-OCC conductor interconnects, power cords and digital cables featuring extraordinary build quality and Formula GC-303 antimagnetic EMI-absorbent modules surrounding the cable offering greater resolution, more powerful dynamics, and virtuoso performances from all your components. All connectors are rhodium-plated for optimal signal transfer.

•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 XLR [FP-601M/602F (R)] connectors
•XLR pins [FP-601M (R)/602F (R)] high-contact luxuriously-finished nonmagnetic rhodium-plated phosphor bronze for stable Furutech Pure Transmission signal
•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.

α (Alpha) Conductor Is Composed Of Fine PCOCC Wire Strands Treated With Furutech’s α (Alpha) Cryogenic and Demagnetizing Process
