FURUTECH LINEFLUX NCF RCA INTERCONNECT CABLE IS THERE REDESIGNED TOP OF THE RANGE
Japanese cable and connector manufacturer Furutech has released an upgrade to its top-of-range Furutech LineFlux RCA interconnect cable.
The Furutech LineFlux NCF RCA now features new CF-102 NCF RCA connectors and an enhanced cable design.
FURUTECH NCF
The interconnect is the first of Furutech’s analogue signal cables to incorporate the company’s proprietary Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF).
NCF, which already features in selected high-performance Furutech products, uses a special crystalline material that Furutech tell us has two ‘active’ properties. First, they say it generates negative ions that eliminate static. Second, they say it converts thermal energy into far-infrared. Furutech combines this material with nano-sized ceramic particles and carbon powder for their additional ‘piezoelectric effect’ damping properties.
FURUTECH LINEFLUX NCF RCA
The redesigned Furutech LineFlux NCF RCA interconnect features new CF-102 NCF RCA connectors, in which the tube pin is a one-piece construction design formed of rhodium-plated OCC injected with NCF. The connectors’ housing is a multi-layered design, in which a hybrid of NCF and 3K silver carbon fibre are layered onto a nonmagnetic stainless steel body. A specially engineered set screw construction ensures firm contact between the connector and conductor. The solid core Alpha-treated* OCC conductor is encased in double-layer shielding, a high-grade polyethylene dielectric and a composite sheath incorporating resonance damping nano ceramic and carbon powder.
All metal parts are treated with Furutech’s trademark two-stage ‘Alpha’ cryogenic and demagnetization process, designed to render the metal “stress-free, stable and highly electrically conductive”.
