-Commnets Italian recording studio, EM Productions:
Prova cavo Furutech XLR Project V1-L da 16 metri:

Abbiamo provato il cavo Project V1-L XLR da 16m e lo abbiamo confrontato con un cavo Reference Cables RMCS01TW da 16m, assemblato con gli stessi connettori Furutech del cavo Project1.
Quindi la differenza di suono è solo nel cavo in se stesso, non nei connettori.
Il suono del Project1 è più raffinato, molto più dettagliato, più chiaro e pulito, i bassi più controllati.

“We tested the 16m Project V1-L XLR cable and compared it with a 16m Reference Cables RMCS01TW, assembled with the same Furutech connectors as the Project1 cable. Therefore, the difference in sound is only in the cable itself, not in the connectors.
The sound of the Project1 is more refined, much more detailed, clearer and cleaner, with more controlled bass.

Masamitsu Fukuda, a seasoned reviewer, emphasizes the crucial role of spades and banana plugs in signal transmission, stating:
“These small but vital components can significantly alter the performance of a speaker cable. Furutech’s latest NCF Plus(R) models achieve an unprecedented level of precision, with zero signal loss and enhanced resolution. Without a doubt, they set the global standard for performance and build quality.”

Reviewer Akira Sumiyama describes the sonic differences as immediately apparent: “Even with just a quick A/B comparison, the improvements are undeniable. The new models remove any sense of grain, refining the texture of the music. Vocals sound more vivid and emotionally engaging, while bass lines gain an organic, natural resonance. The level of high-fidelity reproduction and effortless musicality is unparalleled.”

Similarly, Yosei Sonoda notes a tighter, more three-dimensional soundstage:
“Switching to the NCF Plus(R) version, percussion instruments snapped into focus with greater precision. The lowered noise floor created a more defined spatial separation between instruments, revealing intricate details in the reverberations. Baritone vocals projected effortlessly, standing apart from the choral elements with crystal clarity. This is truly the ultimate in high-end speaker cable termination.”

Power distributor「GTO-D2 NCF(R)」User report

=================================================================================

“The other day, I purchased your power strip, GTO-D2 NCF, and I’m amazed by its effects. I originally used the PS Audio Direct Stream P15 as my power source, and I thought that adding the GTO-D2 NCF might not have much impact. However, among all the power accessories I have purchased so far, this one stands out with outstanding effects. I feel that it has a greater impact than both the ISOTEK TITAN V5 and the P15.
I wrote a review on my blog, and it’s truly a blessing for audio enthusiasts that this is available in the 120,000 yen range.
Thank you very much. I wanted to express my gratitude to the developers, so I couldn’t help but leave a comment.”

…I experimented with the NCF Clear Line (RCA on the line input and output of my Accuphase Preamp C-2450. The effects using the line input terminal were outstanding, as follows:

- The signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) improved, resulting in each sound becoming clear and distinct.

- There was an enhancement in transient response and dynamic control, leading to a dramatic improvement in the sense of power and liveliness.

- The transparency increased, making vocals and string instruments more melodious.

- The coloration disappeared, leading to a natural sound texture.

- The dynamic range expanded, resulting in a sound full of warmth.

- The overall sound became similar to an upgraded preamp or power amp, providing significant returns on investment.

The following Furutech products are awarded 2023 The Absolute Sound Editors’ Choice:

Furutech DPS-4.1 Power cord

“The Furutechs added a sense of acoustic openness… they firmed up the bass and plumped up the midrange, adding gravitas to the resonances… ” “Its sonic effects were more globally presentational and were heard and sometimes felt throughout the system. They didn’t disrupt my system balance; rather, they removed veiling and in so doing enhanced the recovery of micro-information.” “..for those who possess some DIY chops, Furutech just might have the power cord for you. All it takes is a little elbow grease, and you’ll be rewarded with a cord that performs on a par with some of the top contenders, at a considerable cost savings. Unreservedly recommended.” By Neil Gader

Furutech NCF Clear Line

“What most captured my attention with the NCF was its more definite sense of layering and greater sense of immediacy…” “The difference between Clear Line “In” and Clear Line “Out” was one of added focus and air between individual images.” “Bottom line: sensible, cost-effective, and, once heard, difficult to part with.” By Neil Gader

… “I salute Furutech’s engineers for the grind of overhauling the legacy XLR plug and endowing it with their proprietary Nano-Crystal2 Formula. Isn’t it amazing that solely for our playback entertainment, their engineers would labour over creating a better connector? I do believe that they did just that, exactly.

… “For decades already, Furutech connectors have been the choice of the most prestigious high-end cable brands. From the same firm now comes and even better XLR and RCA plug. That’s cause for applause; and a humble thank you!”

“With the introduction of NCF to Furutech’s top RCA interconnect cable we get an expressive powerful mid and high range – a hard to mistake improvement over the original version (without NCF). Again, the NCF effect exceeds expectations.

The reduction of noise brings expressiveness and a strengthened resolution – performance that can be termed “Reference Class”. The transparent mid-range response adds impact and allows momentum to dynamic expression, enhancing the contrast as a whole.”
