Furutech Power Guard E11
Furutech mains cable designed to attenuate AC power disturbances and reduce noise on hi-fi components.
Description
The Power Guard E11 is a high-end mains cable from Furutech, designed to connect an audio or video component to the mains supply. It forms part of the Furutech range, a manufacturer recognised for the variety of its cables and accessories dedicated to electrical signal transmission.
The domestic electrical network is never entirely stable: the AC waveform can be distorted by other appliances connected to the same circuit, as well as by voltage spikes or dips caused by the transformer being shared with other homes or businesses. The Power Guard E11 is designed to attenuate these disturbances and reduce the resulting vibrations, with the aim of limiting perceptible electrical noise on the powered component.
According to Furutech, this cable achieves this attenuation without restricting the current draw of the connected appliance, which sets it apart from other, more restrictive filtering solutions.
This type of mains cable is aimed at hi-fi and home cinema enthusiasts wishing to optimise the power supply of their system, particularly on already well-built setups where residual sources of noise become noticeable.
What to check before buying used
The connectors, mains plug and IEC inlet, deserve close inspection: play on connection, tarnished pins or oxidation indicate heavy use and can affect electrical contact. The braided sheath and shielding must remain intact, with no cuts or crushing, to preserve their filtering effectiveness. Also check the cable's flexibility near the plugs, an area where the internal strands tend to fatigue over time.
