Hi Fi Choice gives the Furutech Flow 28 NCF its Recommended Award
An important recognition for the Furutech Flow 28 NCF
The Furutech Flow 28 NCF has received an impressive recognition from Hi Fi Choice. The compact inline power filter is featured in the September 2026 issue and has been presented with the Hi Fi Choice Recommended Award. This gives a product developed specifically to provide cleaner power a clear recommendation from a well known international hifi publication. According to the review summary published by Furutech, Hi Fi Choice noticed a significantly lower perceived noise floor together with improved clarity and imaging. Bass reproduction was described as tighter and better controlled, while the overall presentation became cleaner and more natural. For music enthusiasts who pay close attention to every part of their system, including its power supply, this award makes the Flow 28 NCF particularly interesting.
Why cleaner power can matter in a hifi system
A high quality music system may contain carefully selected source components, amplifiers and loudspeakers, but every active component ultimately relies on power from the mains supply. High frequency interference and other forms of electrical noise can be present on that supply, while digital electronics within the system can also generate electromagnetic and radio frequency interference of their own. The Furutech Flow 28 NCF inline power filter has been designed to reduce RFI and EMI before these unwanted influences reach sensitive equipment. It can be positioned between a power cable and a component or between a power cable and a power distributor, providing a straightforward way to introduce dedicated power filtering into an existing hifi or AV system.
NCF technology combined with sophisticated filtering
Inside the Furutech Flow 28 NCF is a carefully developed combination of materials and technologies. Furutech uses its proprietary NCF material together with passive GC 303 EMI absorbing material, Alpha treated OCC copper conductors and multiple levels of shielding and insulation. According to the manufacturer, the integrated AC 1501 R filtering section uses a parallel circuit with a coil and capacitor to measurably reduce high frequency noise. Furutech also incorporates its Floating Field Damper technology, which is designed to reduce unwanted electromagnetic effects around the metal components of the connector. This extensive technical approach makes the Flow 28 NCF particularly relevant for anyone searching for a premium inline mains power filter for a carefully assembled hifi system.
Hi Fi Choice reports clear improvements
The Recommended Award is not simply a recognition of impressive materials and construction. According to Furutech's published summary of the review, Hi Fi Choice experienced a lower noise floor as well as greater clarity and more precise imaging during listening. Bass performance was also considered tighter and better controlled, while the overall musical presentation sounded cleaner and more natural. Hi Fi Choice ultimately described the Flow 28 as another well made and effective Furutech product. The audible influence of any power filtering product can naturally vary according to the connected equipment, the electrical environment and the complete system, but receiving this Recommended Award nevertheless provides meaningful independent recognition for the Flow 28 NCF and the technology behind it.
