Know before you buy
This cable is designed for single-ended applications, typically used to connect a device with a 3.5mm headphone output—like a smartphone, tablet, or portable media player—to an audio system with RCA inputs, such as a stereo receiver or powered speakers.
While longer cables are generally more susceptible to interference, the Evergreen features a metal-layer noise-dissipation system and double shielding specifically designed to reject RF interference, ensuring a clean signal even at this length.
Solid Long-Grain Copper conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion, which is a primary source of signal degradation in standard cables. This results in a clearer, more focused sound profile.
Cold-welding allows the cable to be joined to the plug without using solder, which is a common point of resistance and potential sound degradation. This method creates a more reliable, low-distortion connection between the wire and the connector.
This specific geometry separates the ground path from the shield, allowing for a cleaner signal transmission. It helps maintain the integrity of the audio signal, resulting in better dynamic range and a lower noise floor.
