Furutech Lineflux-NCF (XLR) Interconnect Cable Delivers Reference-Level Signal Transfer
Furutech Lineflux-NCF (XLR) interconnect cable is a flagship-grade audio cable engineered for ultra-purist signal transmission in high-end audio systems. Designed to elevate the sonic performance of balanced source-to-preamp or preamp-to-amplifier links, this cable integrates proprietary technologies and carefully refined materials to deliver vanishingly low distortion, expansive dynamic range, and profoundly lifelike imaging.
Lineflux-NCF (XLR) Features α (Alpha) OCC Conductors for Pristine Signal Integrity
Lineflux-NCF (XLR) uses Furutech’s solid-core α (Alpha) OCC conductors, which are engineered from ultra-pure Ohno Continuous Cast copper. Each conductor strand undergoes the proprietary Alpha Process—a dual-stage treatment involving deep cryogenic freezing followed by a demagnetising procedure—to eliminate molecular boundaries, minimise resistance, and suppress residual magnetism that can distort delicate low-level signals.
This conductor material enables high-fidelity transmission of microdynamics, transient response, and frequency extension, allowing the listener to experience the recording’s full emotional intent with surgical clarity and immersive presence. Combined with a high-grade polyethylene dielectric and double-layer shielding, the cable rejects radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, maintaining signal purity in even the most electrically congested environments.
Furutech Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF) Adds Advanced Damping and Noise Suppression
Furutech’s NCF technology transforms the Lineflux-NCF (XLR) into a state-of-the-art mechanical and electrical noise suppression system. Embedded throughout the connectors and structural components, the Nano Crystal² Formula consists of a composite of nano-sized crystalline particles, ceramic powder, and carbon-based materials. This advanced formulation delivers a unique combination of effects: it emits negative ions to eliminate static buildup and converts thermal energy into far infrared radiation to dissipate internal vibration.
NCF’s piezoelectric and anti-resonant properties translate to a quieter noise floor, better tonal definition, and improved dimensional accuracy across the soundstage. The resulting listening experience is richly layered and palpably holographic, making the Lineflux-NCF ideal for discerning audiophiles seeking lifelike acoustic realism.
Furutech CF-601M NCF(R) and CF-602F NCF(R) XLR Connectors Maximise Contact Stability and Vibration Control
The Lineflux-NCF (XLR) is terminated with Furutech’s reference-level CF-601M NCF(R) and CF-602F NCF(R) XLR connectors. These precision-milled components feature rhodium-plated α (Alpha) pure copper pins for ultra-low resistance and stable signal transfer. The pin assemblies are infused with heat-resistant NCF Liquid Crystal Polymer Resin, combining structural rigidity with superior internal damping.
Connector bodies utilise a layered construction of nylon, glass fibre, and crystalline ceramic carbon composites, delivering resonance control and mechanical grounding. Each housing is finished with a multilayer hybrid NCF carbon fibre and stainless steel jacket, designed to shield against airborne vibration and maintain dielectric stability across temperature variations.
Additional elements such as the stainless-steel powder-infused resonance damping release button and NCF material damping clips further ensure signal consistency during both fixed installation and repeated system adjustments.
Lineflux-NCF (XLR) Produces Immersive Resolution and Musical Coherence
The sound signature of Furutech’s Lineflux-NCF (XLR) interconnect cable is defined by its ability to retrieve fine detail with exceptional resolution, revealing subtle harmonic cues, reverberation tails, and microdynamics that enhance the listener’s connection with the performance. This tonal transparency is balanced by a rich, organic midrange and foundational low-end articulation that maintains emotional warmth and musicality.
Bass frequencies are tight, extended, and controlled, while treble information is rendered with air and nuance without fatigue. The stereo image remains coherent, stable, and three-dimensional—even under complex orchestral passages or high-dynamic-range recordings.
Whether integrated into reference-grade home audio setups or professional mastering systems, the Lineflux-NCF (XLR) cable remains transparent to the source while elevating the holistic sonic environment.
Furutech Lineflux-NCF (XLR) Combines Audiophile Craftsmanship with Technical Precision
With a 13.0mm diameter and a composite PVC sheath that includes nano ceramic and carbon powder, the Lineflux-NCF (XLR) balances mechanical robustness with elegant design. Every element of its construction—from the conductor metallurgy to the connector resonance treatments—is engineered with scientific precision and validated by exhaustive listening tests.
This interconnect cable exemplifies Furutech’s commitment to creating audio components that serve the source without adding artefacts or colouration. It meets the expectations of audiophiles who demand not just performance but purity, providing a cable that disappears from the signal path while revealing the full potential of high-end playback equipment.
