Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN Optimiser Enhances Audio-Visual Precision
The Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN is a cutting-edge LAN line optimiser designed to elevate the audio and video performance of your high-end entertainment system. Its plug-and-play functionality allows immediate improvements to the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, delivering heightened audio detail and superior tonal balance. Ideal for audiophiles and home cinema enthusiasts, this device transforms your listening and viewing experience by unlocking the full potential of your sound source without introducing coloration.
Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN Features Advanced Gold-Plated Nonmagnetic LAN Connectors
The Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN is equipped with 24k gold-plated nonmagnetic LAN connectors. These connectors incorporate a copper alloy EMI shield, offering unparalleled signal transmission precision. The high conductivity of gold ensures stable and consistent signal flow, reducing electromagnetic interference that can disrupt sound quality. By delivering clearer, more accurate audio transmission, this feature ensures every note, dialogue, and ambient sound is preserved in pristine detail.
Electrolytic Capacitors Suppress Vibrations and Eliminate Noise Interference
Furutech's proprietary electrolytic capacitors have been specifically designed for acoustic optimisation. Coated in a high-performance silver damping treatment, these capacitors suppress unwanted vibrations to enhance clarity and tonal richness. Additionally, they eliminate noise interference from equipment output terminals, ensuring seamless sound transmission. This precision engineering brings out the nuances of your music or cinematic soundscapes, offering an unrivalled acoustic experience.
Two-Stage Cryogenic and Demagnetisation Alpha Process Improves Conductivity
At the heart of the NCF Clear Line-LAN is Furutech's Two-Stage Cryogenic and Demagnetisation Alpha Process. This innovative method employs ultra-low temperatures—achieved using liquid nitrogen or helium—to alter the molecular structure of all metal components, reducing internal stress and improving electrical conductivity. Following cryogenic treatment, a patented ring demagnetisation process eliminates residual magnetisation, delivering immediately noticeable improvements in soundstage depth, dynamics, and tonal accuracy.
All metallic components in the Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN undergo this Alpha Process, ensuring they remain in a stress-free, stable, and conductive state, critical for optimised signal flow and performance.
Semi-Sealed Air Chamber Design with Hybrid Damping Materials
The NCF Clear Line-LAN features an internal semi-sealed air chamber engineered for superior resonance control. Constructed with stainless steel and Furutech's Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF) material, the chamber minimises vibration-induced distortions. The external housing integrates four layers of hybrid carbon fibre, further improving damping and extending frequency range.
Additionally, the NCF end cover—crafted from heat-resistant nylon and NCF material—provides ultimate resonance control, refining tonal balance and reducing unwanted noise for a more immersive sound experience.
Durable and Precision-Engineered Stainless Steel Body
Built for longevity and high performance, the Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN is encased in a sturdy stainless steel body, secured by precision anti-shock screws calibrated for optimal torque. The result is a housing structure that ensures both structural integrity and vibration isolation, protecting the internal components and maintaining peak performance.
While some stainless steel components may exhibit weak magnetism due to fabrication stresses, this does not affect the performance of the device.
Effortless Integration and Immediate Performance Boost
Using the Furutech NCF Clear Line-LAN is straightforward. Simply insert it into the available LAN terminal of your system’s preamp, AV receiver, DAC, or streaming player. Once connected, the improvements are instant and measurable:
- Enhanced soundstage depth and focus
- Greater harmonic balance and transparency
- Reduction in high-frequency noise and distortion
- Increased clarity and sound dynamics
This optimisation extends beyond audio, as video performance also benefits from reduced noise and improved signal accuracy, delivering sharper, more vibrant visuals.
