(More customer reviews)Amplifiers, except those made by NAD, are overwhelmed by the peak performance of demanding music like classical symphonies or rock bands in full production so the top and bottom range is cut off and the mid-range detail is lost in the vain struggle to use the available power to get out as much music to the speakers as possible. You may have wondered why single instruments sound great and large numbers or groups sound flat? Well, it's simply a lack of power available to meet peak amplifier demand.
You have probably heard of Panamax and it is their sister company, Furman, highly regarded in the professional music industry for thirty years, that's has a number of products to address this problem. The least expensive is the Furman Elite 15 PFi but they all regulate the voltage, clean up the power and most importantly in this particular connection add capacitors to store power for peak amplifier demand. So when Beethoven Fifth or your favorite rock band starts opening up and you expect to hear that strangled, flat sound of old, prepare yourself for a transformative experience. Your old amplifier will suddenly start belting the music out on steroids, the treble and bass range will be greatly extended and the clarity of the mid-range detail will open up. Now that's what I call a great $600's worth of investment! I had to work really hard to discover this information since Furman does not market to consumers so take advantage of my research and enjoy the benefit.
Obviously, if you have a CD/ DVD player, music server or Internet radio, you will also benefit immeasurably by stripping out the 'jitter' or vibration degrading the quality of sound coming out of digital-analog converters by also investing $1,200 in a Peachtree Audio Nova. That will give you back the clear separate recorded sounds that got merged together and that clarity will be a source of great joy. High quality speaker cables will also extend the range and subtlety of the sound from the speakers but the Furman is the first transformative building block!

For over 33 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. 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 Furman's 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. Further, the 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. The Elite-15 PF i also features remote control capability via 12V triggering, compatible with the 12V triggering devices commonly found in power receivers and pre-amp processors. At the center of the Elite-15 PF i is Furman's unique Power Factor Technology. 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.
