Introduction

Balanced audio cables are essential for high-fidelity audio setups, especially when transmitting signals over longer distances. The Furutech FA-αS22 is specifically designed to deliver optimal signal transfer with minimal noise and distortion, ensuring that your audio experience is as accurate and dynamic as possible. With high-purity Alpha-OCC conductors, advanced insulation, and Furutech’s proprietary cryogenic treatment, the FA-αS22 delivers an unparalleled audio performance.

Key Features

1. Alpha-OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) Copper Conductors
   • The FA-αS22 features Furutech’s high-purity Alpha-OCC copper conductors, which are renowned for their superior conductivity and long, continuous grain structure. The OCC process ensures that the copper is free from impurities, resulting in minimal signal loss, reduced distortion, and enhanced signal clarity. This ensures your audio system receives an accurate and detailed sound signal.
2. Balanced Cable Design
   • The FA-αS22 is designed as a balanced audio cable, featuring dual conductors and a ground wire. This balanced configuration is ideal for professional audio applications and high-end home audio systems, as it effectively eliminates noise and interference, ensuring that the audio signal remains intact even over longer cable runs.
3. Alpha Cryogenic and Demagnetization Treatment
   • Furutech applies its proprietary Alpha (α) Cryogenic and Demagnetization treatment to the conductors, which enhances conductivity and reduces internal stresses within the copper. This treatment ensures smoother signal transmission, resulting in a more natural, dynamic, and distortion-free audio experience.
4. High-Quality Insulation and Shielding
   • The FA-αS22 is insulated with high-quality polyethylene (PE) dielectric, which offers excellent electrical insulation properties. This insulation minimizes signal loss and interference, ensuring that your audio signal remains clean and accurate. The cable also features a braided shield that protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), further preserving signal integrity.
5. Pure Transmission Technology
   • Furutech’s Pure Transmission Technology ensures that every component of the FA-αS22 is optimized for maximum signal transfer. This technology reduces distortion, interference, and signal loss, resulting in a more transparent, detailed, and dynamic sound experience.
