Furutech
Furutech is a Japanese engineering-led brand known for its precision-crafted cables, connectors, and accessories designed to preserve signal integrity at every stage of the audio chain. Their hallmark α (Alpha) Process — a two-step cryogenic and demagnetising treatment applied to conductors and metal components — reduces distortion, improves conductivity, and maintains long-term stability. The result is lower noise, greater dynamic expression, and a cleaner, more natural sound that endures.
At Groove Central, we focus on headphone upgrades from Furutech and its ADL (Alpha Design Labs) division — a range of premium headphone cables and high-grade plug adaptors engineered for sonic refinement, reliability, and flexibility. ADL’s acclaimed iHP-35 series features high-purity OCC conductors (with silver plating on select models), the signature Alpha Process treatment, and precision audio-grade terminations designed to deliver extended bandwidth, lower noise, and a smoother, more organic presentation than standard stock cables. With thoughtfully matched fitments for major headphone brands such as AKG, Sennheiser HD-series, and Shure, ADL by Furutech cables are available in multiple lengths for both home and studio setups.
Termination options and adaptor compatibility are extensive — including 3.5 mm TRS, 6.3 mm stereo jack, MMCX, mini-XLR, and balanced 3-pin or 4-pin XLR formats. Furutech’s robust plug adaptors, such as the ADL by Furutech 3.5 mm to 6.3 mm and 4-pin XLR to dual 3-pin XLR adaptors, offer seamless transitions between headphone, amplifier, and DAC systems while maintaining absolute signal integrity.
What sets Furutech apart is the fusion of materials science and meticulous craftsmanship — combining OCC conductors, rhodium-plated or carbon-fibre-shelled connectors, and precision machining to achieve uncompromising quality. Every cable and adaptor is built as a precision component, not an accessory, delivering a quieter noise floor, tighter imaging, and a more open, effortless sound — especially when stepping up from stock headphone cables.
