What materials are used in the cable conductors?

The cable uses solid Long-Grain Copper Conductors (LGC), which have fewer oxides, less impurities, and fewer grain boundaries than standard OFHC copper. This results in a smoother, clearer sound with reduced distortion.

How is interference and noise minimized?

The cable features a Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) that provides 100% shielding coverage to prevent RF interference from reaching connected equipment. Additionally, the Double-Balanced Asymmetrical Geometry separates ground and shield paths for cleaner and quieter performance.

What type of insulation is used in the cable?

It uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation, which absorbs almost no energy and has a low-loss, benign distortion profile. This material reduces distortion and prevents the out-of-focus effect found in cables with other insulation types.

What connectors are on the cable ends?

One end has cold-welded gold-plated RCA plugs, which avoid solder connections to minimize distortion. The other end has a 3.5mm mini connector.

What is the length of the cable?

The cable length is 5 meters, which is equivalent to 16.4 feet, providing ample reach for most audio setups.

Features

Solid Long-Grain Copper Conductors (LGC)
Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion. Evergreen's solid Long-Grain Copper allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper. OFHC is a general metal industry specification regarding “loss” without any concern for distortion. LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, and definitively better performance
Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation
Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy (loss). Some of this energy is stored and then released as distortion. Evergreen uses air-filled Foamed-Polyethylene Insulation on both conductors because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. Thanks to all the air in Foamed-PE, it causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials
Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)
100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation System. Noise-Dissipation System prevents a significant amount of RFI from reaching the equipment’s ground plane
Double-Balanced Asymmetrical Geometry
Purpose designed for single-ended applications, Double-Balanced Asymmetrical Geometry offers a relatively lower impedance on the ground for a richer, and more dynamic experience. While many single-ended cable designs use a single path for both the ground and the shield, Double-Balanced designs separate the two for cleaner, quieter performance
Cold-Welded Gold-Plated RCA Plugs
This plug design allows for a connection devoid of solder, which is a common source of distortion. Because the ground shells are stamped instead of machined, the metal can be chosen for low distortion instead of machinability
