Thank you for purchasing a Furman Series II 
Power Conditioner, and congratulations on 
choosing the best protection for your electronics.
 
Series II Power Conditioners feature Furman’s 
revolutionary SMP+ circuitry, as well as our 
exclusive Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT).  
Together, SMP+ and LiFT comprise what is, 
without question, the world’s most advanced 
and comprehensive transient voltage surge 
suppressor / conditioner.  
SMP+ 
Furman’s SMP+ surge suppression 
incorporates multiple protection technologies 
including MOV’s along with a powerful filter to 
remove noise from the AC line, making it the 
most advanced and reliable power conditioning 
technology available. Unique to Furman’s 
SMP+ is its unparalleled clamping voltage.  
While other designs clamp at voltages that are 
well above 450 Vpk, SMP+ clamps at 376 Vpk, 
(266 VAC RMS).  This unprecedented level 
of protection is only available with Furman’s 
SMP+ technology.  Additionally, Furman’s 
trusted over-voltage circuitry protects against 
those all-too-frequent accidental connections 
to 380 VAC, by shutting off the incoming power 
until the over-voltage condition is corrected.
LiFT (Linear Filtering Technology)
Unfortunately, traditional AC filter / conditioners 
have been designed for unrealistic laboratory 
conditions.  Prior technologies, whether multi-
pole filter or conventional series mode, could 
actually harm audio and video performance 
more than they helped, due to the resonant 
peaking of their antiquated, non-linear designs.  
Under certain conditions, these designs could 
actually add more than 10 dB of noise to the 
incoming AC line!  Worse still, digital data 
loss, the need to re-boot digital pre-sets, or 
destruction of digital converters are frequently 
caused by excessive voltage spikes and AC 
noise contaminating the equipment ground.  
Furman’s SMP+ with LiFT takes another 
approach, ensuring optimal performance with 
linear filtering and zero leakage to ground.
