Introduction
For over 34 years, Furman has pioneered the development of AC power products for the most demanding audio, video, and
broadcast professionals. Though the need for pristine AC power is nothing new, the Elite-15 Power Factor i's technology and its
unique implementation are revolutionary and without peer.
The extreme AC demands encountered in the professional audio/video arena have required technological developments far
in excess of typical home theater/audiophile power products. In studios, live sound, and broadcast facilities, breakdown is
unacceptable. Equipment failure or poor performance is costly. The same is true of today's home theater. Our solution based
technology, extensive engineering expertise, and robust build quality have answered the challenge of today's corrupted power
lines, and led to the creation of the Elite-15 PF i.
Today's power lines are plagued with RF and EMI noise. When connecting sensitive equipment to your home's power outlet, AC
noise couples into your system's critical components. This AC noise masks low level signals and cripples performance. This low
level content is critical because it relays the crucial harmonics and ambience in audio, as well as the depth and clarity in video.
With Furman's exclusive Linear Filtering Technology, televisions, projectors, DVD players, amplifiers, and processors are fed
linearly-filtered AC power. This dramatically reduces noise, ensuring consistent peak operation regardless of load conditions or
the time of day. For the first time, you will see and hear your theater or audio system as it should be – uncompromised.
Another critical feature is our exclusive Series Multi-Stage Protection. This virtually maintenance-free surge suppression
assures the highest level of AC protection possible, without sacrificing itself when the offending surge is severe – no damaged
equipment, no service calls, no down time. Further, our famous retractable front panel LED lamps allow easy viewing of either a
rack or cabinet full of equipment, even when your theater lights are off.
At the center of the Elite-15 PF i is our unique transient Power Factor Technology circuit. For the first time, low-level analog,
digital, and video components are not modulated or distorted via the power amplifier's extreme AC current demands. Further,
the power amplifier sees a highly filtered, extremely low-impedance supply of AC power. The Elite-15 PF i, in fact, has in
excess of 3 Amps of continuous current reserve (over 45 amps peak charge) for the most extreme peak power demands. This
technology enables power amplifiers and powered subwoofers to operate at peak efficiency, reaching levels of performance
previously unattainable.
No longer will your amplifier's performance be at the mercy of your home's incoming AC power or inferior AC protection/filtering
devices. The net effect is as if your power amplifier virtually doubled in power and improved immeasurably in quality.
When employing the Elite-15 PF i, you will immediately notice far clearer, stunningly focused sound and visual images from
your system. Video presentation will be crisp and colors true with greater gray and black scale definition, as well as noticeably
improved depth and clarity. Sonic transients will be startlingly fast with bass fundamentals that shake foundations with
their weight and visceral impact. Mid and high frequencies will bloom with sweet, non-glaring ease while imaging improves
dramatically, all the while remaining true to your system's inherent virtues.
