Furutech FP 203
Pack of 4 Furutech FP 203 spade plugs in treated pure α copper, rhodium-plated, for terminating speaker cables.
Description
The Furutech FP 203 is a spade plug intended for terminating speaker cables. Sold in a pack of 4 units, it allows a pair of cables to be equipped at both ends, ensuring a neat connection between the cable and the terminals of the amplifier or speaker.
The conductor of this plug is made from treated pure α (Alpha) copper, a material sought after for the quality of signal transmission on speaker connections. The rhodium plating provides resistance to oxidation, which limits the degradation of the contact over time.
The cable is secured by pressure or by soldering, depending on the method chosen by the user. The plug is specified for cables with a maximum diameter of 4.0 mm, with a spacing between conductors of 8.2 mm and dimensions of 12.9 mm ± 0.1 mm x 24 mm ± 0.1 mm in length.
This type of plug is aimed at hi-fi enthusiasts wishing to assemble or reterminate their own speaker cables, with a carefully finished connector rather than a standard spade supplied as original equipment. It is suitable for both crimp/pressure fitting and solder fitting, depending on the user's tools and experience.

What to check before buying used
When buying used, it is advisable to check the condition of the contact and the rhodium finish, which can tarnish or become scratched through repeated handling. It is also necessary to make sure the pack is complete with its 4 plugs, and to check that the pressure-fit mechanism has not been damaged during a previous installation or from poorly executed soldering.
