La Grande Epreuve
Grand Prix racing’s single focus: Testing the absolute limits of technology and performance for that final 10th that makes the difference between victory and also-ran. Furutech builds each and every cable in their line the same way; optimized engineering solutions applied to advanced materials and processes, backed by utterly meticulous build quality.
To fully enjoy all that analog offers you must get every detail right, especially given the vanishingly low outputs of many cartridges. Furutech Pure Transmission technology is applied to every element of signal transfer to avoid the distortion that robs music of life. Choose the configuration matching your needs and enjoy the purest of sounds from your turntable. Match the La Source ‘Leads with a Furutech Silver Arrows pure-silver phono cable and victory, as they say, is yours.
All enthusiasts are looking for the same qualities: Verisimilitude to the original event, a sense of engagement promoting suspension of disbelief, an immersion in the audio and video experience. To engage without effort requires meticulous preparation of the entire playback chain especially including signal cables, and most importantly, right at the source.
