Furutech FT-786F(R) XLR Socket Delivers Reference-Grade Signal Transmission
Furutech FT-786F(R) High Performance Female 3-Pin XLR Socket is a premium-grade connector engineered to meet the demanding standards of audiophile, studio, and high-fidelity system builders. This high-performance socket stands at the intersection of scientific innovation and artisan-level build quality, embodying Furutech’s Pure Transmission philosophy with every detail.
FT-786F(R) Uses Rhodium-Plated Alpha Pure Copper for Optimal Conductivity
Furutech FT-786F(R) socket is built around a rhodium-plated α (Alpha) pure copper conductor. This signature metallurgy achieves exceptionally low resistance while preventing signal degradation caused by micro-arcing or oxidation. The α-process—Furutech’s proprietary cryogenic and demagnetisation treatment—further stabilises the conductor’s crystalline structure, enabling precise and uncoloured signal flow. This makes the FT-786F(R) not only ideal for professional-grade signal paths but also a critical upgrade for discerning high-end audio installations.
FT-786F(R) Features Piezo Ceramic Damping for Superior Vibration Control
Furutech’s FT-786F(R) XLR connector is designed to counteract mechanical resonance at the source. Its matte-black, non-resonant nylon/fibreglass body incorporates Furutech’s proprietary Piezo Ceramic Damping Material. This advanced compound blends nano-ceramic particles and carbon powder with special resins to absorb vibrational energy across a wide frequency spectrum. Integrated within this structure are nonmagnetic stainless steel plates, placed through a patent-pending process that enhances mechanical grounding without introducing magnetic distortion—an essential design trait for purist-grade audio signal integrity.
FT-786F(R) Uses a Liquid Crystal Polymer End Cap to Improve Thermal and Mechanical Stability
The FT-786F(R) XLR socket employs a super heat-resistant liquid crystal polymer resin for its end cover, which provides both exceptional structural rigidity and thermal isolation. This ensures long-term reliability in both studio racks and high-performance equipment chassis where internal heat can be a concern. This strategic material selection also contributes to a cleaner, tighter signal presentation by suppressing micro-vibrations transmitted through the chassis.
FT-786F(R) Supports Soldered Terminations for Precise, Permanent Connections
Furutech FT-786F(R) features soldered connections to guarantee mechanical security and enduring electrical contact. Soldering enables audiophile builders and professional engineers to maintain a clean, stable interface between signal conductors and the α (Alpha) copper pins. This connection method ensures there is no mechanical looseness or increased contact resistance over time, making the FT-786F(R) ideal for fixed, high-reliability installations where signal integrity is paramount.
FT-786F(R) Provides Elite-Level Performance in a Compact, Durable Form Factor
As part of Furutech’s reference-grade connector line, the FT-786F(R) Female XLR is crafted for both performance and longevity. Its low-profile yet robust construction makes it an excellent choice for compact high-end gear, rack-mount studio equipment, and OEM applications where layout efficiency and long-term durability matter. Every aspect of this connector—from the rhodium plating to the piezo-enhanced housing—has been engineered for neutrality, precision, and maximum musicality.
FT-786F(R) XLR Socket Aligns with Furutech's Pure Transmission Ethos
Furutech FT-786F(R) exemplifies the company’s unwavering commitment to eliminating every possible barrier to signal purity. By optimising conductivity, minimising mechanical interference, and isolating electromagnetic distortions, the FT-786F(R) helps preserve the full dynamic and tonal information of audio signals. Whether integrated into a mastering console, a high-fidelity amplifier, or a custom DAC, this XLR socket supports the full resolution and character of the source.
Perfect for premium OEM applications, system upgrades, and studio-grade installations, the Furutech FT-786F(R) 3-Pin XLR Female Socket brings uncompromising signal integrity to the foundation of your audio chain.
