Furutech AG-12 Phono Cable

Phono signals are extremely low-voltage and sensitive to interference. The AG-12 uses a 4-layer shielding construction and silver-plated conductors to protect these delicate signals from noise while maintaining high-frequency clarity.

Despite its robust shielding, the AG-12 is designed to be soft and flexible. This makes it much easier to route through tight spaces or around corners compared to many other high-end, heavily shielded cables.

Rhodium is exceptionally durable and resistant to corrosion, which helps maintain a consistent, stable connection over many years. It is favored in high-end audio for its ability to preserve signal integrity without the oxidation issues common with cheaper metals.

At 1.2 meters, the cable is optimized to keep capacitance low, which is critical for phono cartridges. This length is generally ideal for connecting a turntable to a nearby phono stage without introducing unnecessary signal degradation.

The 4-layer shield is designed to block electromagnetic and radio frequency interference from external sources like power cables or Wi-Fi routers. By isolating the signal path, it ensures a lower noise floor and a cleaner, more detailed playback.
