Description

Discrete Symmetrical Power with Dual-Screen Technology cancels hum inducing noise from audio and video. Five discrete power banks eliminate inter-component noise and interference. Power Factor Technology provides over 80 Amps peak charge surplus current for power-starved amplifiers. Linear Filtering Technology dramatically reduces differential AC line noise. Comprehensive, non-sacrificial AC surge protection. 20A capacity, 12 outlets (8 Balanced Power, 4 Power Factor Technology), Telco In/Out, 3 pairs coaxial connectors (Universal Coax). Rack ears included. From the Manufacturer From the Manufacturer The Furman IT-REFERENCE 20i Discrete Symmetrically Balanced Power Conditioner for Your Home Theater 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. Furman's 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 Furman's flagship power conditioner, the IT-REFERENCE 20i. Eliminate Line Noise Today's AC lines are plagued with ever increasing noise. When AC noise couples into your system's critical components, it masks low level signals and cripples performance. This low level content is critical because it relays the crucial harmonics and ambience in audio, and depth and clarity in video. With the IT- REFERENCE 20i's exclusive Discrete Symmetrical Power, video screens, projectors, CD-DVD players, pre-amplifiers, and scalers are fed linearly- filtered ultra-low-noise symmetrical power. This dramatically reduces AC noise, ensuring peak operation of your critical components. For the first time, you will see and hear your theater or audio system as it should be — uncompromised. The IT-Reference 20i's Discrete Symmetrical Power features total isolation between the filtered-high current outlets, and the isolated symmetrical power AC outlet banks. This positively breaks noise-inducing ground loops, hum bars, and power supply backwash between critical interconnected equipment, all without compromising electrical safety. Furman's newly refined Dual-Screen Transformers yield the widest bandwidth of noise- reduction possible. This enables the IT-REFERENCE 20i to uncover unprecedented levels of video and audio detail, while insuring that plasmas, LCD screens, or video projectors are free of AC ground contamination from an audio processor or power amplifiers. Less Video and Amplifier Distortion The IT-REFERENCE 20i also employs Furman's unique 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 IT-REFERENCE 20i, in fact, has in excess of 9 Amps of continuous current reserve (over 80 amps peak charge) for the most extreme peak power demands. This technology enables power amplifiers and powered subwoofers to work at peak efficiency and reach 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 doubled in power and improved immeasurably in quality. When employing the IT-REFERENCE 20i 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.

  • Clean power, but no sequential power up for a pliers. Trips 20 amp circuit ever time.
For the high price, being able to sequentially turn on amps is a must. I have four very powerful amps plugged into this unit and my 20 amp circuit breaker trip every time I try to power it up. This forces me to leave the unit(and my amp) powered on all the time. Not happy.. sound quality is noticeably better. Bass for the subs...tighter. whole system sounds better. ... show more

  • The Best Ever-The Final Piece For My System
Purchased this unit as the last step in my 30 year audio quest for the best sound possible from any recorded media. I read up on this unit and spoke with some real sharp people in the industry. So I took a chance and boy am I glad that I did. No losses of dynamics, no loss of highs, zip down sides. Upsides, a noise level that allows all my gear to shine, you name the area of reproduction improved, detail, depth, width of image, natural sounding top to bottom, the bottom end that best I've ever heard and I did not change my speakers. Micro dynamics, and due to the low noise floor, little things stand out in total display, meaning you do not have to try to hear things, to the extent on really complicated recordings' where there is lots of instruments play at once, nothing gets pushed to the back. Digital sound jaw dropping, again lower the noise and digital shines, no issues at all. This unit and the 15i will have you going through your record collection like a kid again. Yes this is expensive, but if you like me have worked hard or many years building your system, this is the last piece of the system. Did more than any gear change, speaker or interconnects regardless of the price. My wife said I've never heard your system sound this good, on one recording she asked did you rebuy that again? it sounds so much better. You don't have to sit in front of the speakers to hear the improvements. It is that good, no straining to hear the improvements. In the past 15 years I've tried or owned many of the conditioners out their, the flavor of the month ones also. None can match was this unit can do. Most harm more than they do good, which is why I also plugged my gear into the wall. Well no longer is that the case. Plug into the wall, listen 10-15 seconds and I unplug. You now hear the grayness, the noise that has filled in detail and so forth, bottom end becomes loose, and with much less dynamic's. The system goes from real to hi-fi sounding. If you have the means and I know this costs a lot, please at least try one, you can even plug your high powered amps into this unit, my 400 watts McIntosh sounds even more powerful, and run cooler when plugged into the IT Reference 20i. ... show more

  • Finally I have the clean power I always wanted
Finally I have clean power !!! The improvements in audio and video quality made me wish I had bought this years ago. I even treated myself to replacing the AC cord on the Furman with an Audioquest NRG-1000 After 35 years of upgrading this represents one of the best purchases of my life. If you have audio and video equipment that are state of the art, you need this gear. ... show more
