Know before you buy
Rhodium plating is chosen for its exceptional conductivity and extreme resistance to corrosion. It provides a stable, long-lasting connection that maintains signal integrity better than standard nickel or gold platings over time.
Yes, installing this inlet plug involves working with high-voltage AC power. It should only be installed by someone comfortable with electrical wiring or a qualified technician to ensure safety and proper grounding.
NCF (Nano Crystal² Formula) is an anti-static, resonance-damping material integrated into the plug. It helps eliminate electrical and mechanical noise, resulting in a cleaner, more transparent sound profile for your audio components.
This is an inlet plug designed to be mounted into the chassis of an audio component, not a plug for the end of a power cable. Ensure your component's chassis cutout matches the dimensions required for the FI-48 series before purchasing.
The FI-48-NCF(R) is rated for 15A at 125V AC or 10A at 250V AC. It is suitable for most high-end audio amplifiers, DACs, and power conditioners operating within these specifications.
