With our ever-continuing technical improvements, it is logical to replace the already since 1982 available D-102 Series (after 24 upgrades in the meantime) with an actual Hybrid version. Together with our Linear Structured Carbon® technology, we have therefore applied some number of strands from our highly acclaimed 3T technology into the new D-102 III 3T Hybrid.

The D-102 III 3T Hybrid is a warm yellow-orange coloured very flexible balanced interconnect with a 3-layer shielding.

• The 2 centre conductors are made of 40 dense and very pure silver-coated strands made of a very high grade Matched Crystal (MC) OFC. Over each centre conductor, an extra Linear Structured Carbon® (LSC) saturated layer is applied. This extra layer of LSC highly improves the quality of the signal transmission by performing electrical bridging on a micro-scale and by converting the external magnetic field close to the conductors into an electrical signal again.
• 4 strands of 3T have been applied to the design. 3T: True Transmission Technology offers a much higher resolution and detail compared to any other metal technology used so far.
• The resistance of each centre conductor is 5.5 Ohm/100 meter.
• The capacitance between the 2 internal conductors is a very low 37 pF/meter; in balanced operation, the overall losses and phase-shift remain very low even in rather high impedance circuitry.

In an unbalanced operation, the two internal conductors can simply be taken together with the shield acting as the signal return. However, the better and preferred layout (which we apply) has the shield only connected to the signal ground at the signal source side (marked by a ground-end marking sticker). One of the internal conductors functions as a signal return.
