Van den Hul 3T The Valley Hybrid RCA to RCA Cable
The 3T The Valley Hybrid is the most cost effective model in the 3T range to feature balanced construction.
The two centre conductors are each made up of 21 x 150 micron 3T conductors and each coated with a Linear Structured Carbon (LSC) layer to improve the resolution and spatial properties of the interconnect.
In the unbalanced RCA version featured here, Van den Hul use the two conductors for signal and ground leads. This improves the quality of the signal transmission. Both internal conductors have the same transmission properties, and the triple shielding is exclusively used for the damping of spurious signals.
Van den Hul 3T True Transmission Technology
Van den Hul are world leaders in cable design and use advanced material design and cutting edge technologies to deliver life-like sound. With their 3T range of cables, they use a proprietary amorphous alloy of metals and non-metals that together make a conductor with an almost ideal set of properties for Hi-Fi cables, found in no other brand; no oxidation or metal fatigue, extended strain relief, stable at extremely high as well as low temperatures, no electroplating chemicals involved, very flexible and an extremely long life-span.
3T Cables have a number of benefits which are unique due to the materials and construction design.
- No material fatigue problems to avoid dramatic sound-quality reductions over time.
- Never any surface or internal oxidation to avoid long-term sonic harshness.
- A very stable amorphous structure which is essential for high-quality live sound including stable high resolution on very low signal levels.
- Very flexible fibres which means no mechanical stress in the conductors in any situation.
- No chemical ageing which neatly avoids any decline in the sound quality over time.
- No mechanical ageing which means there will never be any deterioration of the transmission quality.
- Very low number of internal boundaries to avoid Cross Crystal Distortion (C.C.D.).
- The innovative 3T conductors produce the highest signal resolution possible.
Our Take On The Van den Hul 3T The Valley Hybrid
The Van den Hul 3T The Valley Hybrid RCA to RCA cable is a cost-effective yet high-performing option in the 3T range, featuring balanced construction for superior sound quality. Its two centre conductors, each comprising 21 x 150 micron 3T conductors, are coated with a Linear Structured Carbon (LSC) layer, enhancing resolution and spatial properties. In this unbalanced RCA version, the conductors are used for both signal and ground leads, ensuring efficient signal transmission. The cable's triple shielding effectively dampens spurious signals. With Van den Hul's proprietary 3T True Transmission Technology, the cable boasts benefits such as resistance to material fatigue, oxidation, and mechanical ageing, providing a stable, high-quality, and long-lasting sound performance.
