ELITE-15 DM i LINEAR FILTERING AC POWER CONDITIONER
DESCRIPTION
For over 33 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-15 DM i’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-15 DM i.
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, amplifiers, and processors are fed
linearly-filtered AC power. This dramatically reduces noise,
ensuring consistent peak operation regardless of load conditions
or the time of day. For the first 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 sacrificing itself when the offending surge is
severe – no damaged equipment, no service calls, no down time.
Further, our digital AC voltage and current meters allow precise
measurements of the incoming AC line and current loads. These
meters are a valuable asset when monitoring systems that
are connected to today’s potentially poor power grids. The
meters may be dimmed when monitoring is not required.
The Elite-15 DM i also features remote control capability via 12V
triggering, compatible with the 12V triggering devices commonly
found in power receivers and pre-amp processors. Additional

products (such as a remote subwoofer) can be daisy-chained
from the 12V output jack for an additional triggered unit. The 12V
triggering feature may be bypassed if desired.
When employing the Elite-15 DM i, you will notice far clearer,
stunningly focused sound and visual images from your system.
Video presentation will be crisp and colors true with greater gray
and black scale definition, as well as noticeably improved depth
and clarity. Many of the technological advances previously available
only in our flagship Reference Conditioners are cornerstones
of the Elite series. Now everyone can reap the benefits of
unrivaled power purification and unequalled surge suppression.
