Furutech FT-866 NCF(R) High End Performance αOCC Wire Binding Posts (2pcs/set)

Description

The Furutech FT-866 NCF(R) High-End Performance αOCC Wire Binding Posts are premium binding posts designed to deliver the highest level of audio performance in high-fidelity audio systems. Known for their meticulous attention to detail and cutting-edge technology, Furutech ensures that these binding posts provide superior conductivity, durability, and noise reduction. Below is a detailed look at their features and benefits:

• Package: Comes as a set of 2 binding posts
• NCF (Nano Crystal² Formula) Technology: The FT-866 NCF(R) incorporates Furutech’s proprietary NCF technology, which is designed to eliminate static, dampen vibrations, and reduce electrical noise. This technology uses a special compound that combines crystalline and ceramic particles with carbon powder, enhancing signal clarity and overall sound quality.
• Rhodium-Plated α (Alpha) OCC Conductors: The binding posts are constructed using α (Alpha) OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper, known for its high purity and excellent conductivity. The conductors are then rhodium-plated, ensuring superior signal transmission, corrosion resistance, and durability over time.
• Non-Magnetic Stainless Steel and Brass Construction: The body of the binding posts is made from high-quality, non-magnetic stainless steel and brass, which reduces interference and helps maintain signal integrity.
• High-Torque Design: These binding posts feature a high-torque design, allowing for a more secure and stable connection. This ensures that your speaker cables are tightly clamped, preventing signal loss or degradation.
• Versatile Cable Compatibility: The FT-866 NCF(R) can accommodate a wide variety of speaker cables, including spades, banana plugs, and bare wire, making it highly versatile and suitable for various setups.

Performance Benefits:

• Exceptional Signal Transfer: The combination of rhodium-plated α (Alpha) OCC conductors and NCF technology ensures optimal signal transfer with minimal loss or distortion, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed sound.
• Reduced Noise and Vibration: The use of NCF technology and non-magnetic materials helps eliminate noise, static, and unwanted vibrations, providing a purer audio signal and enhancing the overall listening experience.
• Corrosion-Resistant and Durable: Rhodium plating offers excellent resistance to corrosion, ensuring that the binding posts maintain their conductivity and performance over time, even in demanding audio environments.
• Secure and Reliable Connection: The high-torque design and robust construction ensure a stable, secure connection with your speaker cables, minimizing the risk of signal degradation or connection failure.

Ideal Applications:

• High-End Home Audio Systems: Perfect for audiophiles who want to upgrade their speaker connections to ensure the highest level of sound quality and signal integrity.
• Professional Audio Setups: Ideal for use in professional studio or recording environments where maintaining pure, uncolored sound is essential.
• Custom Audio Installations: Suitable for anyone building or upgrading a high-performance audio system, ensuring that every component delivers top-tier performance.

With rhodium-plated α (Alpha) OCC conductors, NCF technology, and a high-torque design, these binding posts ensure superior signal transfer, durability, and noise reduction. Whether you’re an audiophile seeking the best possible connection for your home audio system or a professional looking for reliable and high-quality binding posts, the FT-866 NCF(R) offers a top-tier solution for achieving outstanding sound clarity and fidelity.

RATING
Furutech Patented One piece Wound-Wire conductor Fully Insulated Binding Posts FT-866 NCF(R)
(Patent No.: US 8,884,162 B2 / DE102012004483A1)
NCF damping fixed ring -Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF).

FEATURES
Incorporated into selected Furutech products, NCF features a special crystalline material that has two ‘active’ properties. First, it generates negative ions that eliminate static. Second, it converts thermal energy into far infrared. Furutech combines this remarkable material with nano-sized ceramic particles and carbon powder for their additional ‘piezoelectric effect’ damping properties. The resulting Nano Crystal² Formula is the ultimate electrical and mechanical damping material. Created by Furutech, it is found exclusively in Furutech products.

All audiophiles search for the same qualities: Verisimilitude to the original event, a sense of engagement promoting suspension of disbelief, a visceral immersion in the audio video experience. They also know that everything in the signal path makes a difference, and that includes speaker binding posts.
This critical connection often proves the weakest link in the quest for tight, low-distortion signal. Furutech’s unique patented wound-wire conductor construction binding posts sit at the very highest rung of build quality and musical performance, maintaining the most noise-free and undistorted signal path possible.

Furutech’s beautifully finished, beautiful sounding Binding Posts are the result of meticulous engineering and careful audition of various suitable materials. The FT-866 NCF(R) features a one-piece wound-wire Alpha-OCC conductor. This special conductor allows for reduced metal mass in the binding post terminal pole construction resulting in minimal impedance and less susceptibility to the negative effects of RFI and magnetic fields. Also, the environmentally friendly construction process of the wound-wire conductor means less metal waste compared to conventional CNC, mold or pressing processes. The FT-866 NCF(R) fitted with Nylon / fiberglass with special “NCF” anti-resonance damping material housing.
