The Evergreen Point Floating Bridge connects Seattle Washington USA to the Bellevue area across Lake Washington. Since opening in 1963 its 2285 meters 7497 ft makes it the longest floating bridge in the world. The structure includes 33 pre-stressed concrete pontoons averaging 110 meters 360 ft long and 18 meters 60 ft wide. Solid Long-Grain Copper LGC Conductors Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion. Evergreens 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 equipments ground reference requires AQs Noise-Dissipation System. Noise-Dissipation System prevents a significant amount of RFI from reaching the equipments 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.
