Here’s a detailed look at the features and benefits:

• Package: Comes as a set of 4 banana connectors
• Rhodium-Plated Contacts: The FT-212(R) features rhodium-plated contacts, known for their superior conductivity and exceptional resistance to oxidation and corrosion. Rhodium plating ensures that the connectors maintain a stable and high-quality signal transfer over time, even with regular use, resulting in minimal signal loss or distortion.
• High-Purity α (Alpha) OCC Copper Conductors: The internal conductor is made from α (Alpha) OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper, which is renowned for its high purity and excellent conductivity. This ensures optimal signal transfer, preserving the clarity and detail of the audio signal for a high-fidelity listening experience.
• Non-Magnetic Stainless-Steel Housing: The connector is constructed with a non-magnetic stainless-steel body, effectively reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and unwanted vibrations. This design ensures that the audio signal remains clean and unaltered, resulting in a more accurate and transparent sound reproduction.
• Secure Cable Clamp System: The FT-212(R) is equipped with a secure cable clamp system that provides a firm grip on the connected cable, ensuring a tight and reliable connection. This prevents disconnection or signal degradation, even with frequent movement or handling.
• Spring-Loaded Banana Design: The connector features a spring-loaded mechanism, which ensures a snug and secure fit when inserted into speaker terminals, improving contact reliability and preventing accidental disconnections.
• Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward installation, the FT-212(R) allows you to easily connect and secure your speaker cables, making it suitable for DIY enthusiasts as well as professional installations.

Performance Benefits:

• Superior Signal Transfer: The combination of rhodium-plated contacts and high-purity α (Alpha) OCC copper conductors ensures exceptional signal transmission with minimal resistance, resulting in clear, detailed, and high-quality audio reproduction.
• Corrosion Resistance and Longevity: Rhodium plating offers outstanding resistance to oxidation and corrosion, ensuring that the connectors maintain their conductivity and performance over time, even in demanding environments.
• Reduced Noise and Interference: The non-magnetic stainless-steel construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and unwanted vibrations, delivering a cleaner audio signal and enhancing overall sound quality.
• Secure and Stable Connection: The spring-loaded mechanism and cable clamp system provide a tight, secure connection with speaker terminals, preventing signal degradation and ensuring consistent high-fidelity sound reproduction.

Ideal Applications:

• High-End Home Audio Systems: Ideal for audiophiles who want to upgrade their speaker connections to achieve the highest level of sound quality and signal integrity in their home audio systems.
• Professional Audio Equipment: Suitable for use in recording studios, high-fidelity audio setups, and other professional audio environments where maintaining pure, unaltered sound is crucial.
• Custom Cable Projects: Perfect for DIY enthusiasts and professionals building or upgrading custom speaker cables, ensuring high-quality connections that enhance the performance of their audio systems.
