Furman ELITE-15 PF

Description

Protect your gear the way the pros do

Furman builds some of the most rugged and robust power protection gear around. The Elite-15 PFi is an impressive introduction to Furman’s exclusive technologies for maximizing the protection and performance of your audio and video components. Many of these technologies were originally developed to meet the extreme AC power demands of professional recording, film, and broadcast studios.

Continuous power monitoring plus bulletproof surge suppression

Power surges can be quick, or sustained — both types can seriously damage unprotected components. The Elite-15 PFi constantly monitors the incoming AC, and if voltage reaches 15% above normal, it automatically shuts off power to all connected equipment. In the case of a sudden voltage spike, many surge suppressors are designed to “take a bullet” and sacrifice internal parts to save your gear. It’s a noble effort, but it leaves your system out of commission while you send the suppressor back to the factory for repair or replacement. Furman’s suppressor circuitry can withstand multiple high-voltage spikes and keep on protecting your gear.

Power Factor Technology: Like a turbocharger for your amp or receiver

Wide-open dynamics are essential for truly exciting sound. To cleanly reproduce instantaneous peaks or “transients,” from a cymbal crash to a car crash, an amplifier needs lots of high-current power. During these moments, amplifiers — including those in receivers and powered subwoofers — may require more current than is available from your home’s AC line. Solution? Plug your amplifiers into the Elite-15 PFi’s high-current outlets. Furman’s unique Power Factor Technology creates a “current reservoir” capable of delivering over 45 amps of peak current. Your amplifier gets the current it needs when it needs it most.

See and hear the signal, not the noise

The Elite-15 PFi’s wide-bandwidth noise filtration reduces the AC line noise that can mask low-level audio and video details. The result is noticeably improved picture and sound quality. Twelve AC outlets on the back panel are divided into three isolated banks, which helps prevent noise created by one component from affecting the power going to your other plugged-in equipment. These outlets have hospital-grade connectors that grip your gear’s AC plugs snugly and securely.
