La Grande Épreuve
Grand Prix racing‘s single focus: Testing the absolute limits of technology and performance for that final 10th of a second that makes the difference between victory and defeat. 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.
The beautifully finished precision machined nonmagnetic stainless steel base and top modules are girdled by a layer of damping carbon fiber. The bottom surface is covered with 16 concentric cushioning grooves made of an extremely effective Piezo Electric damping material.
The Piezo Effect and Your Valued LPs
Furutech’s Pure Transmission Piezo Ceramic Carbon series products–like the Innovations award-winning FI-50 connector series–feature a remarkable “active system” construction. We create a unique material with two “active” materials: Nano-sized ceramic particles and powdered carbon. Only nano-sized ceramic particles effectively couples with carbon powder for the piezo effect to occur. Nylon and fiberglass are incorporated into the construction as well, and the whole forms an extremely effective mechanically and electrically damped material. That’s not a misprint; it’s electrically damped as well.
Piezoelectric effects are the key. Furutech’s employs these nano-sized polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramic particles exhibiting electro-generative properties (mechanical pressure creates an electrical charge) with carbon powder that exhibits thermal-conductive characteristics that interacts with the electrically charged ferro-ceramic particles converting their energy into heat that’s conducted away and released from the surface of the material and in doing so making the connection between electrical and mechanical oscillation. The mechanical and electrical damping effects occur while “interconverting” thermal, mechanical, and electrical energy acting as the perfect weighted surface for your LPs.
That’s how far Furutech goes to achieve Pure Transmission LP playback, and the Monza.

Audio Origami – GTPuck Record Stabiliser
A Simple, Instant Upgrade For Turntables
A record stabiliser is essential to couple your records to your platter. Playing records without a stabiliser results in a thinner sound and a narrower presentation.
The GTPuck is the result of hundreds of hours of research and development with varying materials and weights. An o-ring spindle gripper holds the puck in the correct position, and the stabiliser is decoupled from the vinyl by a large base o-ring. The GTPuck is 270 grams and is machined from billet aluminium to be perfectly concentric.
The GTPuck helps your turntable get the most from your records.
Audio Origami – PuraMat Record Platter Mat
The Audio Origami PuraMat is an excellent and affordable upgrade to rubber and felt platter-mats found on entry to mid-level turntables.
If your turntable has a metal or glass platter or a rubber or felt platter mat, upgrading to a PuraMat will improve your mid-range, tighten up your bass and deliver a fuller, more focused sound.
It also helps decrease the amount of static electricity that transfers from your platter to your record.
Black Ravioli Record Ground
- The Black Ravioli Record Ground dissipates the energy created by the stylus travelling through the record groove. Essentially grounding it, which results in improved sound quality.
- Effective on most turntables including Linn LP12, Technics SL series, Garrards, and many more.
