Introduction

Balanced audio cables are essential in high-fidelity audio setups, especially when transmitting signals over longer distances. The Furutech FA-13S is designed to provide optimal signal transfer with minimal noise and interference, making it an excellent choice for professional and high-end audio applications. Its solid-core design, combined with high-quality materials and Furutech’s proprietary technologies, ensures that your audio equipment performs at its best, delivering accurate, dynamic, and lifelike sound.

Key Features

1. Solid-Core Alpha-OFC (Oxygen-Free Copper) Conductors
   • The FA-13S features solid-core Alpha-OFC (Oxygen-Free Copper) conductors, ensuring superior conductivity and minimal resistance. The solid-core design minimizes strand interaction, which is a common cause of signal distortion in multi-stranded cables. This results in a cleaner, more accurate signal transmission with enhanced clarity and detail.
2. Balanced Cable Design
   • The FA-13S is designed as a balanced audio cable, featuring dual conductors and a ground wire, which helps eliminate noise and interference. This balanced configuration is ideal for both professional audio applications and high-end home audio systems, as it maintains signal integrity even over longer cable runs, ensuring your audio signal remains free from external noise.
3. Alpha Cryogenic and Demagnetization Treatment
   • Furutech applies its proprietary Alpha (α) Cryogenic and Demagnetization treatment to the conductors. This process involves deep cryogenic freezing and demagnetization, reducing internal stresses within the copper and enhancing conductivity. This treatment ensures smoother signal flow, resulting in a more natural and dynamic sound.
4. High-Quality Insulation and Shielding
   • The FA-13S is insulated with a special polyethylene (PE) dielectric, which offers excellent electrical insulation properties. This insulation minimizes signal loss and interference, ensuring your audio signal remains clean and accurate. Additionally, the cable features an advanced shielding design that provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).
5. Pure Transmission Technology
   • Furutech’s Pure Transmission Technology is implemented throughout the FA-13S, ensuring that every component is optimized for maximum signal transfer. This technology minimizes distortion, interference, and signal loss, delivering a more transparent, detailed, and dynamic audio experience.
