Furman Displays New Products and Technologies (10/8/2007)

CEDIA US Expo 2007

Elite i-Series

Furman will be demonstrating its redesigned and technologically enhanced Elite i-Series power conditioners for the first time at the CEDIA Expo in Denver. The innovative Elite i-Series have a bold yet elegant new design that features smooth contours of black steel with clear blue LED lights. In addition to the technologies that made the original Elite Series so popular, such as Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT) and non-sacrificial surge suppression, new 12-volt triggering adds remote control capabilities to the new conditioners for convenient operation.

The Elite i-Series conditioners are now shipping with an MSRP of $379 to $1,099. The original Elite products will still be available while supplies last.

Reference i-Series

Furman will also be showcasing its redesigned and technologically enhanced power conditioners, the Reference i-Series, which feature smooth contours of black steel and silver brushed aluminum complemented by clear blue LED lights. In addition to the technologies included in the original Reference Series, such as Discrete Symmetrically Balanced Power, Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT), and non-sacrificial surge suppression, the IT-Reference 15i and IT-Reference 20i have been optimized with Dual Screen Technology that provides more than 30 percent greater noise reduction capabilities, resulting in the clearest audio and images to date.

The Reference i-Series conditioners are now shipping with an MSRP of $889 to $3,499. The original Reference products will still be available while supplies last.

Special AC Power Training Seminar at CEDIA Expo 2007:

AC Power - the Foundation of Every Premium Home Theater System Today's installers face unprecedented challenges when it comes to AC power and its effect on home theater systems. With ground loops, hum bars, and damage from surges, comprehensive power management control and conditioning is no longer an option for the performance and protection of home theater components - it's a necessity.

Garth Powell, an industry-recognized engineer, will share his experience to aid other industry professionals in achieving the highest sound and video quality through smart use of AC power. The seminar will cover the dos and don'ts of uninterruptible power supplies, as well as how the right power conditioning technology can greatly improve the performance of home theater equipment.

The seminar will be held at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8, at the Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center, Room Agate A. Food and drinks will be served, and there will be a drawing for one of the acclaimed Furman power management products, such as an AC-215 or a Power Station unit. Because this is a CEDIA-accredited seminar, attendees will also receive 0.375 continuing education units (CEU) towards maintaining their status as CEDIA Certified Professionals.
