A udiophiles have been known to spend a lot of time selecting a power cord. Indeed, these devices are indispensable links-nothing happens without them. But what about the other indispens- able accessory that enters the listening room right in front of them the AC wall receptacle? Easily overlooked on the enthu- siast audio checklist, and just as likely to be a cheap dual outlet that a contractor picked up at a big-box store for two bucks. Thin internal copper and poor electrical connections and contacts cre- ate impedance issues and losses in connectivity and conductance that affect performance.

When I first spoke with Scot Markwell, US Distributor of Furutech products, at Elite Audio Video Distribution in LA, and a longtime colleague of, and setup man for, the late Harry Pearson, about the opportunity to review a full loom of Furutech flagship cables and passive power devices, I admit to being more than a little interested.

Da sempre è un tema caldo: accessori o necessari? Ovvero: la miriade di oggetti e oggettini che promettono
da ragionevoli improvement a effetti vicini alla magia hanno una ragion d’essere? Come spesso accade la
risposta non è assoluta ma a volte capita di trovare qualcosa fuori dalla norma.

Makeshift towers of stacked maple or walnut wood flooring samples support the wires to my amps

Take a look at my gallery of homemade cable supports. What a mess! I am embarrassed to show it. With a mid-six figure investment in gear, this is the best I could come up with? I’ve been looking for a cable management solution for as long as I’ve been involved in audio.

able risers are not exactly news, nor are they universally used, accepted or even recommended. In fact, even those who advocate them have trouble agreeing on what they do or how they do it. None of this is, of course, any reason to ignore them.

6moons 2018 – NCF Booster

It is amazing when you realize that nearly nothing
in existence is as solid as it seems. Unless cooled
down to excessive degrees, everything moves and vi-
brates constantly. When you dive into the world of par-
ticles, it’s all vibration. Not even the particles are solid.
They’re just oscillating forms of energy. All this is so
obvious to us that we only know it from science class.
There we first learnt about particles like miniature mar-
bles orbiting an atomic nucleus. Later we learnt that
those balls don’t really exist. Enter quantum physics
where even stranger concepts are sprung on us. Nev-
ertheless, we can only live by the grace of these ele-
mentary particles.

I’ve said it before: No matter what type of audiophile you are, Furutech probably makes a product you’ve lusted after. In addition to power distributors and filters, and finished interconnects, speaker cables, and power cords, they make DIY bulk cables and component parts, and accessories that include the stainless-steel and silver-plated FI-50 NCF power-cord connectors,
