About this product
Every March 17 on St. Patrick’s Day New York City merely paints a green line down the center of its Fifth Avenue parade route—a stunt easily pulled off by any city—but only Chicago dyes an entire river the perfect shade of emerald green to honor Irish culture. Why green? Thanks to Ireland’s lush vegetation the island is often lovingly referred to as the Emerald Isle. To the Irish a green display of pride is not to be taken lightly. In the United States even those of non-Irish descent know to wear green clothing on St. Patrick’s Day or else be playfully pinched by an Irish friend or colleague! But it’s one thing to don a green shirt or tie another thing altogether to transform a 156-mile long river. Chicago’s Stephen M. Bailey the man who orchestrated the transformation boasted that he’d turn the River Chicago into the River Shannon (Ireland’s longest) for a day and eventually he did.There was no specific recipe for successfully dyeing a river. A bit of trial and error was required. Initially over 100 pounds of dye was used and the river stayed green for a week! In the second year 50 pounds of dye kept the river green for three full days. In the third year it was found that using 25 pounds of dye would turn the river green for a single day. Two years later environmental concerns led to the formation of a new vegetable-based dye that produces a perfect sea of green and lasts for four or five hours—40 pounds of the stuff does the trick. Following suit across the nation major canals minor creeks city blocks drinking fountains and even the Presidential Fountain at the White House are dyed green for St. Patrick’s Day—all thanks to the wonderful example set in Chicago.

This Package Includes(2) Evergreen 0.6m (1.97 ft) RCA Male to RCA Male Cable EVERGREENSOLID LONG-GRAIN COPPER (LGC) CONDUCTORS: 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.ASYMMETRICAL DOUBLE-BALANCED GEOMETRY: Purpose designed for single-ended applications Asymmetrical Double-Balanced 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 G
