That means it cleans and protects the AC power coming from your wall before it reaches your audio and video gear. It is the top model in Furman’s Reference line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurman has built power gear for recording studios, film, and broadcast for over 40 years. In those places, power problems are not allowed. The IT-Reference 15i brings that same studio-grade power to your home theater or hi-fi. It has 11 outlets and a 15-amp rating, and it even has a small isolation transformer inside that feeds two special outlets with extra-clean power for video gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Matters for Your System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour gear can only sound and look as good as the power feeding it. Noisy power can add hum, hiss, or a soft, washed-out picture. The IT-Reference 15i is built to clean that up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscrete Symmetrical Power.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is Furman’s special trick for video. Two outlets get balanced, ultra-low-noise power from a built-in isolation transformer. This breaks “ground loops” (a common cause of hum and on-screen noise) so a TV or projector is not polluted by noise from, say, a Blu-ray player.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLiFT (Linear Filtering Technology).\u003c\/strong\u003e Furman’s filtering smooths out AC noise evenly across a wide range. The result is a lower noise floor, so quiet details come through and the picture looks cleaner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Factor Technology.\u003c\/strong\u003e The IT-Reference 15i stores a big reserve of current — over 55 amps of peak charge. When your amplifier suddenly needs a lot of power for a big, dynamic moment, that reserve is ready, so the music keeps its impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSMP and EVS surge protection.\u003c\/strong\u003e Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) guards your gear from spikes and surges without wearing out, and it does not dump noise to your ground line. Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) goes one step further: if the incoming voltage climbs dangerously high, the unit shuts off to protect everything plugged into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Reviewers Say\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewers describe the IT-Reference 15i as a serious, well-built piece of gear that quietly does its job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ec-blockquote\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA reviewer at \u003cem\u003eHome Theater Shack\u003c\/em\u003e (Dave, 2012) gave the IT-Reference 15i a 4.5-out-of-5 overall score and said he could “heartily recommend” it.

It has 11 outlets in total: 2 special “symmetrical power” outlets fed by the isolation transformer (best for your TV, projector, or other video gear), 4 Power Factor outlets (great for power amps and subwoofers), 4 linearly filtered outlets, and 1 handy outlet on the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the back you will also find surge-protected coaxial (cable\/satellite) and telephone connections, so those lines are protected too. A master power switch on the front lets you turn everything on or off at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IT-Reference 15i is a complete unit and works on its own.
