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?

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!

I have been a fan of Furutech wires for the better part of a year. My experience with the Furutech Evolution II series of wires (see my PFO review on issue 45) concluded that the series is an ideal rock-solid performer on which to build the connectivity foundation of a substantial audio system, in spite of their moderate unit price point.

Another perennial over-achiever in fine audio/video is Furutech. This year I was able to sample several of their new designs, and came away impressed once again with the quality of engineering and the performance of the Furutech line.

Still spinning those black discs from years gone by? Not black CDRs but real 'vinyl' black discs… you know records? What you say… yeah sure (heck even my 21 year old son prefers vinyl over digital which is why he is now buying records when he can—he owns a turntable!). But have you tried any record clamps lately? Say what? Well clamping a record to the platter can yield great benefits, and how it is done will defiantly has it influences.

Furutech has come on strong the past few years with multiple innovations most of which were relatively low cost high value offerings, but always high tech. Their previous phono cable was under $500 and did a very good job with high-end cartridges. Now Furutech has taken off the gloves and committed their huge resources to a cutting edge cable offering with all the technological expertise at their command. The Silver Arrow Phono Cable, yes its expensive and yes it delivers the musical goods and more.

If you're a regular reader of this site, you're presumably among the converted: a true-blue audiophile who has no question that there are profound qualitative differences to be heard between different amplifiers, preamplifiers, and CD players—not to mention cables, cords, power conditioners, equipment racks, and even footers. On the other side of the audio divide are the debunkers: those who think those differences are usually at best negligible, and who view audiophiles as pitiable obsessive-compulsives who delude themselves into hearing distinctions that aren't really there.

I freely confess to being a long-time video junkie. Since VHS first arrived, I've invested in a long sequence of home theater format and gear: VHS, Laserdisc (still got most all of my LDs, too), DVD, DVHS, HD broadcast (Portland was one of the initial test sites for HD over the air), HD over cable (Comcast), and now Blu Ray. (I guessed right on that last one, and went with Blu Ray instead of HD- DVD, which I considered to be an inferior format.) I shifted to HDMI for video only when I purchased my Panasonic BD-10 Blu Ray player; it was video only since my Linn Kisto didn't support HDMI.
