Canford Audio FST has long been one of Canford’s best selling products – the perfect installation cable, with jacket + foil single stripping. DFT is the true 110 ohm version of FST, similar in most respects, but with differing insulation materials and lay-up to achieve the required characteristic impedance. As with FST, the foil is glued to the outer PVC jacket, so comes away cleanly during stripping.
