Furutech's new flagship power cord

“Project V1 might be the last stop on your cable and power cord journey — the final destination.”

I have been in this business for quite a while, and in the 80’s when I started to talk about how the sound from a setup could be changed by using different cables and materials, many people just looked strange at me. Todaysome things have changed, and many listeners share my point of view. In the 80’s I tried a lot of different “home-made” cables, something that changed around the millennium whenI got in contact with Furutech. Over the years I have tried a lot of different cables from Furutech, both bulk andfinished. I have never been disappointed by Furutech, the different cables do deliver in their segment and price range

Project V1 – First impression.

For years, the start of my power distribution has been a Nanoflux NCF from the wall into a Pure Power NCF.

When I had the chance to try the Furutech Project V1, this was the location I chose. My jaw dropped. Normally changes are small and subtle, but this was like a new setup. The difference was not just noticeable, it was huge. The new cable gave the sound more openness and air in both ends of the spectrum. The base became deeper, firmer and more melodic, while in the other end the roof was lifted. Once again it was like cleaning the windshield of your car.

Once I got my jaw back in position and gave the listening some more time, I realized the difference in the dynamic. The dynamics of the Nanoflux is great, but the VI is way better.

Project V1 – Today.

For quite some time, my own Project V1 has been installed in the power chain. As of all cables, the burn-in affect the sound, and for the V1 the time is long but so is the gain. The soundstage became deeper and even more open, all the small details stand out in a new, more obvious way.

in my setup the VI made a huge difference.
