The Mountain Hybrid

About the The Mountain Hybrid

The Van den Hul 3T The Mountain Hybrid is the superlative representative of the 3T balanced interconnects, featuring two centre leads each made of a 0.9 mm diameter single-strand 3T conductor individually coated with an extra Linear Structured Carbon (L.S.C.) layer. It has an enlarged distance between the signal conductors and shielding to reduce capacitive load, and quad shielding consisting of two layers of heavy silver-coated high-quality copper multi-strand conductors and two layers of L.S.C. The jacket is saffron yellow or orange, with a cable diameter of 11.3 mm. After 3-5 hours of run-in, it delivers dramatic improvements in sound transmission, providing high resolution, stable amorphous structure, no material fatigue or oxidation, and a strong sense of being at the recording location. Available in RCA (unbalanced) and XLR (balanced) terminations, sold as pairs. It is praised for superior detail retrieval, even harmonics, depth, stereo separation, smoothness, and musicality without harshness.
