NCF Booster AC Connector Clamp

The NCF Booster for Power Cords is designed as a multipurpose tool to improve the performance of any power cord. Serving several functions simultaneously, this is the most flexible and highest performance upgrade you can make for any power cord, providing vibration control, ElectroMagnetic Field control as well as RFI suppression, all in a compact yet weighty package allowing excellent flexibilty for placement in a wide variety of positions.

Booster Function
The simplest use-case for the NCF Booster is to elevate power cords above a boundary. Raising power cords above boundaries like floors or shelves enables the cord to develop a fully formed and undistorted EM field around the cable. This, in turn, restores tonal balance, removes smear/hash/grit/grain and greatly expands the cord's dynamic capabilties.  

Clamp Function
The AC Clamp works wonders when affixed to the IEC or the Wall plug of a power cord (preferably both). Clamping both halves of the NCF Booster down on the cable greatly reduces induced vibration. This delivers sweeter highs, better defined lows and impressive focus in the midrange. The other advantage, of course, is that by clamping the power cord into position, it cannot flop out or shimmy out of its socket, thus assuring optimal connectivity at all times. The AC Clamp section can also be used to elevate and support the body of power cords or speaker cables which are being run across a floor or carpet.

RFI and EMI Rejection
The NCF Booster leverages Furutech's proprietary NCF material (more on this in the NCF tab) to absorb spurious Radio Frequency Interference (aka RFI) as well as ElectroMagentic Interference (aka EMI) and convert those high frequency noises into tiny amounts of heat. What's left behind is pure AC, smoother, sweeter, richer and more "alive", creating truly enticing soundscapes and unforgettable performances. 

Outstanding Expandability Options
All stand-alone NCF Boosters can be expanded! In the box with each NCF Booster are two sets of posts. One set is a "finishing" set and features rounded ends. These are intended for use as the top part of the post. These allow for very low-profile installations, such as on a shelf behind a component. The second set of posts (~2.6") are used as extension poles. When screwed into the top posts these provide an extra bit of elevation, giving the user excellent variable height adjustment options between 3.15" to 5.5". However, should greater height be required OR if you'd like to add extra AC Clamps (or Signal Cradles) to your existing NCF Booster, this can be easily accomplished by buying Extension Shafts. This kit provides an additional 12 extension shafts in two sizes allowing for near infinite configuration!

NCF: Nano Crystal² Formula (aka NCF)
This is the ultimate electrical and mechanical damping material. Developed by Furutech, NCF is a proprietary crystalline compound blended with ceramic nanoparticles and carbon powder. This process creates a remarkable material with multiple benefits: First, NCF generates negative ions to eliminate static charge build-up. Second, NCF converts thermal energy into far-infrared light, a remarkable innovation allowing the material to run cooler, even during the most demanding of passages. Third, NCF has excellent damping properties, thanks to the “piezoelectric effect” of the NCF material. Found exclusively in Furutech’s top offerings, NCF is a game-changing material and its sonic effect is undeniable; superior resolution, clarity and dynamics, with deep-black backgrounds and a purely natural tonal balance.
