Description

The Furutech CF-7445(R) High-End Performance 4.4mm TRRRS Connector is a premium connector designed for audiophiles and professionals who require the highest level of signal integrity in balanced audio connections. This connector is engineered with Furutech’s renowned precision and use of advanced materials, ensuring top-quality performance and durability in any high-fidelity audio setup. Here’s a detailed look at its features and benefits:

• Connector Type: 4.4mm TRRRS (Pentaconn) – The TRRRS configuration offers a balanced connection, allowing for superior stereo audio signal transmission with minimal interference. This makes it an ideal choice for balanced audio equipment, including high-end portable devices and headphone amplifiers.
• Rhodium-Plated Contacts: The CF-7445(R) features rhodium-plated contacts, which provide exceptional conductivity and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. Rhodium is known for its hardness and durability, ensuring that the connector maintains consistent performance over time, even with frequent use.
• High-Purity α (Alpha) OCC Copper Conductors: The conductors are made from high-purity α (Alpha) OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper, ensuring optimal signal transfer with minimal loss or distortion. This high-grade copper is cryogenically treated to enhance its conductivity and reduce signal impurities.
• Non-Magnetic Stainless-Steel Housing: The connector is encased in a non-magnetic stainless-steel housing, which helps to reduce interference and maintain signal integrity, contributing to cleaner and more detailed audio output.
• Carbon Fiber Finished Shell: The connector is elegantly finished with a carbon fiber outer layer, providing both aesthetic appeal and additional shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Cable Compatibility: The CF-7445(R) is designed to accommodate a wide range of cables with different thicknesses, offering flexibility for use in various audio projects and installations.

Performance Benefits:

• Balanced Audio Transmission: The 4.4mm TRRRS connector provides true balanced audio transmission, reducing noise and crosstalk between channels, and delivering a clearer, more accurate sound with enhanced stereo separation.
• Exceptional Signal Integrity: The combination of rhodium-plated contacts and α (Alpha) OCC copper conductors ensures that the signal is transmitted with minimal resistance or loss, resulting in superior audio clarity, detail, and transparency.
• Durability and Corrosion Resistance: The rhodium plating offers excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, ensuring that the connector maintains its performance and conductivity over time, even in demanding environments or with frequent use.
• Reduced Noise and Interference: The non-magnetic stainless-steel housing and carbon fiber finish help shield the signal from external interference, resulting in a cleaner audio signal and improved overall sound quality.

Ideal Applications:

• High-End Portable Audio Devices: Perfect for use with portable digital audio players (DAPs), headphone amplifiers, and other high-resolution audio sources that support balanced 4.4mm connections.
• High-Fidelity Headphone Cables: Ideal for connecting high-end headphones with balanced wiring, providing enhanced sound quality and reduced noise compared to unbalanced connections.
• Custom Audio Projects: Suitable for DIY enthusiasts and professionals looking to build or upgrade custom headphone cables, interconnects, or other balanced audio components.

The Furutech CF-7445(R) High-End Performance 4.4mm TRRRS Connector is designed to meet the needs of audiophiles and professionals who require the highest quality in balanced audio connections. With rhodium-plated contacts, high-purity α (Alpha) OCC copper conductors, and a carbon fiber finished shell, this connector ensures optimal signal transmission, durability, and noise reduction. Whether you’re upgrading your headphone cables, building custom audio interconnects, or seeking to achieve the best possible sound from your portable audio equipment, the CF-7445(R) offers an unparalleled solution for delivering top-tier audio performance.
