About the FI-50(R)

The Furutech FI-50(R) is a premium 2-pole + earth IEC connector from Furutech's Pure Transmission Piezo Ceramic series, designed for high-end audio applications. It incorporates breakthrough construction with a multilayer nonmagnetic stainless steel and carbon fiber shell, combined with a special damping and insulating acetal copolymer. The connector body uses nano-sized ceramic particles and powdered carbon, along with nylon and fiberglass, to create an electrically and mechanically damped, nonresonant structure. Piezoelectric effects from nano-sized polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramic particles generate electrical charges that interact with carbon powder's thermal-conductive properties, converting energy into heat to damp vibrations and ensure the purest signal transmission. It includes the Earth/Ground Jumper System (US Patent No. 6,669,491) to eliminate EMI from metal parts. Note: The NCF variant adds Nano Crystal² Formula for enhanced damping, static elimination, and far-infrared conversion, but this is the base FI-50(R) model.
