The Furutech Flow-28 AC filter was a late-season surprise. Late last summer, Furutech offered me an
opportunity to try a pair of their new Flow-28 AC filters here. A compact one-piece AC filtering system that
simply plugs into your system, between your outlet and your power cord? AC plug, IEC female? All made
with Furutech’s legendary engineering and execution?
FURUTECH DESTAT II £400 Most of us will be familiar with the slight crackle of static electricity as they remove a vinyl record from the plastic inner sleeve, and many will have reached for the Zerostat pistol to cure it. Whilst it goes some way to solving the problem it does not solve it entirely
If you are a lover of the vinyl long- playing disc, this unit from Furutech will be one of those all-too-rare “must- have” components. There is information in those grooves that is always being obscured, minimized, and dulled by the interaction between the magnetism on the disc and the electronics of a cartridge.
This baby flying saucer from Furutech is, by far and away, the best new accessory for audiophiles introduced
in 2011. By bombarding any digital or analog media with negative and positive ions, it eliminates static on
LPs and digititus in digital media way beyond its $425 price tag would indicate. It even features sophisticated
ergonomics that allow portability and multiple uses that indicate a mature mark two design. I would use it on
my wife if she made music instead of dinner.
I have been recommending the Furutech Demag at an MSRP of $2400.
Guess I’ll have to change that one! I don’t know how else to put it, but two ten second bursts of the Destat
II (MSRP of $425) and any CD is improved beyond the positive effects of the giant Demag. CDs become
more natural sounding and detailed. I hear better realism at all frequencies. Even bass reproduction is
tighter and more layered. The Demag does help CDs, but not to the extent of the new baby flying saucer:
the hot new Destat II!
f the lengths of wire that connect the various parts of our audio systems, the phono cable is the most specialized, and this makes it the easiest to muck up as well. The infinitesimal signal coming from a phono cartridge, which is measured in fractions of a millivolt for low-output moving-coil cartridges, is far more susceptible to the harmful effects of noise than more robust line-level signals.
The word “Reference” is back in the Furutech dictionary.
Always on the lookout for new stuff, I watch the manufacturers carefully.
Furutech has done it again, I would never have guessed I’d be looking at an “ordinary” wall socket and realizing they could be made better still.
FURUTECH LINEFLUX RCA £1,720/1.2M Japanese cable specialist Furutech isn’t terribly well known over on this side of the globe, but has an enviable reputation in its native Japan as a purveyor of very high quality interconnects and loudspeaker leads. This is their flagship cable, with only the XLR variant at £1,950 costing more. The Lineflux is an immacu- lately finished product that makes your average super-interconnect
“I’m testing Willie Nelson’s ‘Don’t Know me’, it shows static electricity of 4.0mV at first. After 10 seconds with
the Destat II: 1.6mV. Another 10 seconds and it shows 0.0mV. It seems all static electricity had vanished after a
20 second treatment.”
“With the Destat II, Furutech not only made a concrete step forward in comparison to the Destat, but it also
completely revenged itself against competitor Orb Sakura.”
