Introduction
For over 30 years, Furman has pioneered the
development of AC power products for the
most demanding audio, video, and broadcast
professionals. Though the need for pristine
AC power is nothing new, the Elite-10 E’s
technology and its unique implementation are
revolutionary and without peer.
The extreme AC demands encountered in the
professional audio/video arena have required
technological developments far in excess
of typical home theater/audiophile power
products. In studios, live sound, and
broadcast facilities, breakdown is
unacceptable. Equipment failure or poor
performance is costly. The same is true of
today’s home theater. Our solution based
technology, extensive engineering expertise,
and robust build quality have answered the
challenge of today’s corrupted power lines, and
led to the creation of the Elite-10 E.
Today’s power lines are plagued with RF
and EMI noise. When connecting sensitive
equipment to your home’s power outlet, AC
noise couples into your system’s critical
components. This AC noise masks low
level signals and cripples performance. Low
level content is critical because it relays the
crucial harmonics and ambience in audio, as
well as the depth and clarity in video. With
Furman’s exclusive Linear Filtering Technology,
televisions, projectors, DVD players, ampliers,
and processors are fed linearly-ltered AC
power. This dramatically reduces noise,
ensuring consistent peak operation regardless
of load conditions or the time of day. For the
rst time, you will see and hear your theater or
audio system as it should be – uncompromised.
Another critical feature is our exclusive
Series Multi-Stage Protection. This virtually
maintenance-free surge suppression assures
the highest level of AC protection possible,
without sacricing itself when the offending
surge is severe – no damaged equipment, no
service calls, no down time.
ELITE 10 E OWNER’S MANUAL
When employing the Elite-10 E, you will
immediately notice far clearer, stunningly
focused sound and visual images from your
system. Video presentations will be crisp and
colors true with greater gray and black scale
denition, as well as noticeably improved
depth and clarity. Sonic transients will be
startlingly fast, mid and high frequencies will
bloom with non-glaring ease, while imaging
improves dramatically, all the while remaining
true to your system’s inherent virtues.
Installation:
Unpacking
Before unpacking your unit, inspect the carton
for any obvious severe damage to the box and
internal protective materials. If internal damage
is likely, contact the carrier who delivered
the unit before proceeding with unpacking. If,
after unpacking, shipping damage is evident,
contact the carrier. Save all shipping and
packing materials. You may need them if you
should ever have to return the unit to the
factory for servicing.
The box should contain the Elite-10 E unit,
detachable AC cord, rack mount kit, owner’s
manual, and warranty registration card. If
anything is missing, please contact your local
authorized Furman Customer Service Center.
Fill out and return your warranty registration
card. Registration is recommended because
it can be used to establish whether the unit is
within the warranty period should your original
ownership documents be lost, and it assists us
in informing you about upgrades or other vital
information.
