introduCtion
Congratulations on your purchase of a
furman Power factor Pro (Model Pf-
Pro or Pf-Pro r.
the Power factor Pro
features furman’s revolutionary Clear tone
technology, series Multi-stage Protection
Plus (sMP+) circuit, as well as our exclusive
linear filtering technology (lift). together
these technologies comprise the world’s
1
first comprehensive AC power conditioner for
instrument amplifiers.
today’s aC power is contaminated. Whether
you play in a stadium, bar, or rehearsal
space, they all have one thing in common:
the aC power is supplied from your local
utility. What’s worse is that the “power factor”
supplied from your building’s aC outlet is
typically poor, thanks to increasingly over
taxed power lines and raised line impedance.
in fact, the quality of aC power has been so
poor for so long, most musicians have no idea
how great their amplifiers could really sound.
When the AC power factor is poor, amplifiers
sound muddy because their power supplies
can’t deliver when pushed. the scream and
cry from a guitar loses bite and harmonics,
bass guitars lose their punch and weight,
keyboards sound nasally, losing clarity, attack,
and extension.
furman’s Power factor Pro addresses this
issue - allowing your amplifier to sound its best
while protecting it at the same time.
desCriPtion
the Power factor Pro’s “Clear tone
technology
tM
” actually lowers the aC line
impedance supplied by your wall outlet, while
storing energy for peak current demands. in
fact, there are over 45 amps of instantaneous
current reserve in the Power factor Pro.
additionally, “linear filtering technology
tM
”
dramatically lowers aC line noise to
unprecedented levels in the critical audio
frequency band. What does this mean? Just
plug in your current-starved amplifier, crank
up the volume, and listen to the dynamics,
