Key Features

1. Silver Hybrid Alpha-OCC Conductor
   • The Silver Arrows-II-R4 is constructed with high-purity Alpha-OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper conductors that are silver-plated, offering a hybrid design that combines the conductivity of silver with the purity of OCC copper. This combination ensures exceptional signal transfer with minimal resistance, resulting in a cable that delivers clear, detailed, and dynamic sound reproduction. This design allows you to experience every nuance and subtlety of your vinyl records with lifelike realism.
2. Dual-Layer Shielding for Noise Protection
   • The cable features a dual-layer shielding system that includes a braided copper shield and an aluminum foil shield, providing excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This shielding ensures that your audio signal remains pure and free from external noise, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed sound experience.
3. High-Quality RCA Connectors with Teflon Insulation
   • The Silver Arrows-II-R4 is equipped with high-quality, rhodium-plated RCA connectors, providing a secure and stable connection between your turntable and phono preamp or amplifier. These connectors are insulated with Teflon (PTFE), which offers excellent dielectric properties, reducing signal loss and maintaining signal integrity. The rhodium plating provides superior conductivity and resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-term performance and durability.
4. Alpha Cryogenic and Demagnetization Treatment
   • Furutech applies its proprietary Alpha (α) Cryogenic and Demagnetization treatment to the conductors and connectors, enhancing conductivity and reducing internal stresses. This treatment ensures smoother signal transmission, resulting in a more natural, dynamic, and detailed audio experience that captures the essence of your vinyl records.
5. Flexible and Durable Design
   • Despite its high-performance construction, the Silver Arrows-II-R4 is designed to be flexible and easy to handle, making it convenient for installation in various turntable setups. The robust outer jacket ensures durability and protection, providing consistent performance even with regular use.

FEATURES
La Grande Épreuve
Grand Prix racing‘s single focus: Testing the absolute limits of technology and performance. Furutech builds each and every cable in their line the same way. Optimized engineering solutions applied to advanced materials and processes with utterly meticulous build quality for the ultimate test.
Phono cartridge output is vanishingly small and easily polluted by RFI and EMI. Every element of signal transfer must be perfectly engineered to avoid distortion that robs music of life. If you’re going to the trouble of playing vinyl why swamp the low-level signal in a veritable soup of noisy distortion right at its source!
All enthusiasts are looking for the same qualities: Verisimilitude to the original event, a sense of engagement promoting suspension of disbelief, an immersion in audio and video experience. To engage without effort requires meticulous preparation of the entire playback chain especially including cables and most importantly at the signal source.
The Silver Arrows-II Phono Cable achieves its remarkably quiet soundstage and transparent presentation with α silver hybrid OCC conductor, three-layer shielding and external ground wire, even a specially engineered cable clamp to improve grip and avoid any potential distortion and Furutech’s Neo Damper technology for ultimate performance.
