Hear the difference that clean, stable power can make in your rig! Ideal for instrument amps, this power conditioner boasts a 45 amp peak current reservoir.

Engineered specifically for use with instrument amplifiers and other high-current equipment, the Furman P-1800 PF R offers a stable, protected and filtered low impedance powered supply for maximum performance of connected electronics. Furman's exclusive Power Factor provides a 45A peak current reservoir to minimize the detrimental effects of line impedance on high-current gear such as amplifiers and powered monitors. Clear Tone Technology provides additional line noise filtration tuned for instrument amplifiers for clean and consistent tone. Plus, equipment benefits from professional-level protection thanks to Furman's exclusive SMP and EVS technologies.

Power Factor Technology
Your amp needs a lot of power to sound its best. If you're plugging into the wall, there's a good chance your amp is not going to get the current it needs when pushed. Furman's exclusive Power Factor Technology provides a 45A peak current reservoir to give your amp the headroom it needs to operate at maximum efficiency. No matter what venue or club, or how close or far away from the power panel, Furman's Power Factor Technology keeps your instrument amplifier's tone consistent and sounding it's best.

Clear Tone Technology
Clear Tone Technology works in unison with Power Factor Technology and Linear Filtering Technology to add an additional layer of AC noise filtration specifically engineered for instrument amplifiers. Clear Tone Technology provides tuned circuits that unveil instrument tone, harmonics, read more and clarity, resulting in a fuller sound and improved dynamic response.

Features:

- Power Factor Technology supplies 45+ amps of instantaneous reserve current, on demand, for power starved amplifiers.
- Furman's exclusive SMP technology provides the highest level of surge & spike protection available.
- LiFT offers AC power filtering to ensure clean power for unequaled audio & video clarity.
- Advanced EVS circuitry detects dangerous voltage irregularities and safely powers down itself and connected equipment in unsafe conditions.
- LED status indicators warn you when voltage is outside of nominal range or when protection has been compromised.
- Isolated outlet banks minimize inter-component interference and noise contamination.
- Clear Tone Technology provides tuned filtering circuits engineered for instrument amplifiers to provide a clean and consistent tone.
- Large digital voltmeter with discrete dimmer button displays incoming line voltage.
- Three widely spaced outlets accommodate bulky AC power transformers.
- 15 Amp rating featuring a high inrush magnetic circuit breaker for added protection.
- Nine total outlets (8 rear panel outlets and one front panel convenience outlet).
- Rear panel BNC connector powers any standard gooseneck lamp for rear rack illumination.
- Front panel USB convenience outlets allows you to charge most media devices or power a USB lamp.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
The Furman P1800 is a phenomenal conditioner. Im using it to power my studio monitors. It delivers smooth clean power. The LIFT technology really works. My monitors sound amazing! Noticed a difference right away after I switch it from a power strip. The power factor technology is also a major plus. The Furman PFR is made specifically for amplifiers, to give it the energy it needs consistently when its pumping out HiRes music. Making your speakers breathe life, dynamics and richness that you crave as a listener or as an audio engineer. You will not be disappointed. Highly approved! Fits perfectly in a rack mount. As far as materials, the quality is excellent. The front panel is super solid. The cord is about 10 feet long. The outlets hold the plugs in tight and snug. Doesn't slouch at all. I used the Furman P1800 while the voltage meter display was amber (125-126 vac). Still works just fine, I think its just a warning to show the voltage zone, to prevent entering the red zone. The Green display will appear when its 120-124 vac. Thats when its optimal to use. When its red i wouldn't use it all as per the directions manual.
