Sort Fut Premium Package (Set of 4)

The Sort Füt is a mechanically tuned resonance control device. It is purpose-built to enhance the performance of your hi-fi system and improve upon the standard spikes and stabilizers that are provided with loudspeakers and racks.

Energy is an unavoidable byproduct whenever components are in use, creating vibrations which can greatly affect the sound produced. The Sort Füt’s proprietary four-part construction eliminates these unwanted vibrations by providing a direct ground path, allowing extraneous energy to escape from electronics. The result: a reduction in intermodulation distortion, a proliferation of musical information, and an increase of tonal and textural details that will allow your system to achieve the dynamic range it is capable of.

SORT SYSTEMS

•  4 Sort Füt units 
 •  Adjustment tool to customize your Sort system to your components
 •  Laser leveling system for precise installation 
 •  Threaded Adapters: 6mm, 8mm, and 1/4-20 threaded adapters are included

Resonance Control—this is the defining element in Nordost’s Sort System. Resonance is an often overlooked, but defining factor in high quality sound reproduction. Nordost’s Sort System allows components to resonate at their natural frequency, without the burden of extraneous, damaging vibrations and the constraint of damping materials.

It is no industry secret that vibration degrades the performance of individual components and sound systems drastically. One way to try to minimize this negative effect is through the use of isolation devices (separating the component from outside forces that would harm sound integrity).  However, Nordost takes a different approach to solving this problem. We believe that the most harmful mechanical energy doesn’t enter the equipment from the outside; it’s generated internally by the audio circuits and power supplies in components, as well as the drivers and crossovers in loudspeakers. Nordost’s Sort Kone and Sort Füt are the ideal solution for these vibration problems, offering an outlet for innate vibrations, while simultaneously protecting loudspeakers, audio racks and components from external factors.

The Sort Lift addresses the other side of resonance control. The Sort Lift is a unique and extremely effective cable support. While other cable lifters in the industry are only concerned with doing just that—lifting the cables, the Sort Lift not only elevates them off the ground, but it employs a patent pending, Floating Spring Design, minimizing the contact that cables have with the apparatus and maintaining the natural resonance of the cables themselves. Additionally, the Sort Lift inhibits the transfer of electrical charges from surface to cable, while delivering a noticeable sonic improvement on the performance of sound systems.

Using each element of Nordost’s Sort System will introduce a natural, lifelike and lively tenor.

SORT KUP: Place under the Sort Füt to protect sensitive floors from scratches and dents.
• Aluminum construction
• Geometry of Kup pairs with finial dome on Sort Fut to minimize effects of vibration 

SORT LOCK: Locks finial dome of Sort Fut in place (once adjusted) to simplify process of moving speakers and returning them to the same setting. 

• Aluminum construction to match the body of the Sort Füt 

Extended Height Studs: These optional studs increase the height adjustment capabilities of the Sort Fut from 14mm to 18mm. These are not the same as the threaded adapters, which are used to affix the Sort Fut to its component, please see the image above for greater clarity.

• Aluminum and Bronze hybrid construction
• Finial Dome of Sort Fut minimizes effects of vibration 
• 3 Ceramic balls (Zr02) per Sort Fut minimize contact surface area while providing physical stability to components
• Sort Fut includes the following Threaded Adapters: 8mm, 6mm, and 1/4-20  (Other options available from dropdown)
• Minimum Height: 69mm (2.72")
