α(Alpha)-CB10 High End α(Alpha)-OCC Copper Stranded Power Line Wire
****For installation in fire retardant tubing only****

Furutech’s α(Alpha) OCC is one of a select few of conductors that Furutech engineers have found to excel in sound reproduction. α(Alpha) OCC is made with high-purity oxygen-free mono-crystal copper using a special casting process. Unlike regular OFC, almost all of the impurities of this high-purity OCC have been removed at the micron level through a special casting process.

FURUTECH α (Alpha) Process
(Two-Stage Cryogenic and Demagnetization)

Using cutting-edge technology and materials, Furutech developed a low-temperature two-stage process that significantly improves every facet of audio and video performance. The treatment begins during the manufacturing
process with a deep, conditioning cryogenic freeze of all metal parts. Using high-end refrigerants — liquid N2 or He
– Furutech achieves temperatures of between -196 to -250C. The treated parts actually change their molecular structure at these extremes of temperature relieving internal stress. The molecules bond together more tightly and the overall structure becomes more stable. This improves electrical conductivity and so power and signal transfer.

Step two in the Alpha Process exposes these same parts to the patented Ring Demagnetization treatment. Ordinary high power magnets used for this purpose often increase magnetization effects; they leave some areas more magnetized than others.
