Description
The Furutech Cradle-Curved is an accessory specifically designed for use with Furutech’s NCF Booster and NCF Booster-Signal systems. This curved cradle provides additional support and stability for cables, especially those with a rounded or non-standard shape, ensuring that they remain in an optimal position to maintain signal integrity and reduce vibration. It is part of Furutech’s line of accessories that aim to improve performance in high-end audio systems by providing better cable management.
- Curved Design for Rounded Cables:
- The Cradle-Curved features a specialized curved shape that is designed to securely cradle and support rounded cables, such as power cords, speaker cables, or signal cables that have a cylindrical form. This design helps to evenly distribute the weight of the cable and prevent any sagging or misalignment that could affect performance.
- The curved profile fits a variety of cable sizes and is ideal for maintaining the correct alignment of larger cables in high-end audio setups.
- Cable Stability and Alignment:
- The Cradle-Curved provides enhanced stability for cables, ensuring that they stay in the desired position. By supporting cables and keeping them properly aligned, this accessory helps maintain consistent electrical contact between the cable and the component, reducing the potential for signal degradation caused by poor connections or improper alignment.
- Vibration Control:
- Just like other components in the NCF Booster series, the Cradle-Curved contributes to the reduction of vibrations that can negatively impact signal quality. By stabilizing cables and minimizing movement, it helps ensure that unwanted mechanical vibrations do not affect the performance of the system.
- This is particularly important in audiophile systems, where even small vibrations can introduce noise or distortion into the audio signal.
- Compatibility with NCF Booster System:
- The Cradle-Curved is designed to be an optional add-on for Furutech’s NCF Booster system, which supports and optimizes both power and signal cables. The NCF Booster units are height-adjustable, and the Cradle-Curved can be attached to the support arms to accommodate rounded cables that need special handling.
- This allows for a more flexible and customizable setup, giving users the ability to fine-tune the position of their cables for maximum performance.
- Durable Build Quality:
- As with all Furutech products, the Cradle-Curved is built using high-quality materials that are non-magnetic and non-resonant, ensuring long-term durability and performance. The cradle is designed to securely hold heavy or thick cables without compromising on stability or longevity.
Applications:
- High-End Audio Systems:
- The Cradle-Curved is ideal for use in audiophile-grade systems, where power cables, speaker cables, and interconnects are often large and heavy. By providing proper support and alignment for these cables, the Cradle-Curved helps improve overall sound quality and ensures that the system performs at its best.
- Professional Studios:
- In recording studios or mastering environments, where maintaining signal purity is critical, the Cradle-Curved can be used to support and stabilize important signal and power cables, ensuring that they remain free from vibration and misalignment, which can affect the audio signal.
- Home Theater Systems:
- For home theater enthusiasts, the Cradle-Curved helps manage thick speaker cables and power cords, ensuring that they stay in place and maintain optimal performance throughout the system.
Benefits:
- Improved Signal Integrity:
- By securely holding and stabilizing rounded cables, the Cradle-Curved ensures that connections remain solid and interference-free, reducing the risk of signal loss or degradation. This results in cleaner, more accurate sound.
- Enhanced Cable Lifespan:
- Supporting cables and preventing sagging or bending reduces the strain on connectors, helping to prolong the life of the cables and the connected components.
- Customizable Setup:
- The Cradle-Curved provides flexibility in how cables are managed within the NCF Booster system, allowing users to adjust the positioning and alignment of cables according to the needs of their specific setup.
- Vibration and Noise Reduction:
- By reducing vibrations, the Cradle-Curved minimizes any unwanted noise or distortion that can negatively impact the audio signal, resulting in better sound quality and a lower noise floor.
The Furutech Cradle-Curved is an essential accessory for audiophiles and professionals looking to optimize their cable management within the NCF Booster system. By providing tailored support for rounded or cylindrical cables, it helps to maintain proper alignment, reduce vibration, and improve signal integrity, resulting in better overall performance for high-end audio systems. Whether used in home audio setups, professional studios, or home theaters, the Cradle-Curved ensures that cables remain secure and perform at their best, making it a valuable addition for anyone serious about achieving the highest level of audio fidelity.
RATING
Cradle-Curved :
Audio grade ABS resin and NCF Nylon resin – eliminating static charge.
FEATURES
Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF).
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.
