Neotech NEP-3002 Graphene / NC-P312-303 II Rhodium

Description - Neotech NEP-3002 Graphene / NC-P312-303 II Rhodium

evaluated by listening:

there are not many power cables that can offer what this one does, the music has a perfect bass base just because there are wires like concrete, the music has drive and is really fun and the music also has the necessary shine. It is a completely different league of music, purity, liquidity and solidity of the image. I highly recommend it for systems that need to be built to the bar, where bass, clarity and where there is a lack of treble are necessary. This cable has everything to offer! I highly recommend it.... the sound is very open, like a real music scene in its concert form. Purity of musical expression, speed and great natural dynamics. What is important is that the cable plays great from the first moment, no burning and waiting for it to play! I would say the ideal cable for most devices! Someone might miss the learned ambientity of the musical presentation in some songs. Each song is a full-fledged concert! The cable is offered with connectors that are also G series treated with graphene. One of the best-performing power cables I can offer and for good money! A true high-end cable without the aftertaste of an unpleasant price. Ideal for 85% of music genres, pop, rock, metal, older 90s music, electronic music, hi-res recordings! When listening to folk, jazz, blues and large orchestral pieces typically classical music, I would use a different type of power cable, for example Furutech FP-032N or FP-TC31, otherwise a great cable for really good money!

Graphene features used:

Shielding - Carbon and Graphene
High-frequency (RF) noise from Wi-Fi and satellites is ubiquitous today and damages the audio signal more than ever before. That is why the signal cable uses a sophisticated noise suppression system. In addition to the universally proven conductor direction control, a shielding layer consisting of a carbon and graphene resistor network (graphene is an ultra-thin high-tech material) is also applied to reduce the influence of high-frequency noise. These technologies from Neotech Cable significantly minimize RF noise, which cannot reach active circuits, affect the audio signal and cause transparency losses.

Graphene is a super-thin form of carbon with a graphite-like structure, one of the strongest materials known in the world.[1] It is only one atom high and is transparent, and due to this de facto 2D structure it also has some special physical properties. It is formed by a planar network of one layer of carbon atoms arranged in the shape of hexagons connected by sp² bonds. Graphene also occurs in multiple layers, but according to the ISO 80004-13:2017 standard, only a material with a maximum of 10 layers can be called graphene.[4]

No other material has ever been observed to have electrons that behave as if they had no effective mass and move at nearly the speed of light. Scientists believe that graphene could be used to prove the so-called Klein paradox. According to current knowledge, this phenomenon should only occur under very extreme conditions (e.g., in the vicinity of black holes). If this were proven, the way would open to the development of a completely new type of transistor.

In addition to electrical conductivity, graphene is also permeable to light, so it can be used in the production of displays and photovoltaic cells. It can thus replace existing devices made of thin metal oxide films. A graphene display is also stronger than those made so far from tin and indium oxides, of which there is still a limited amount.[5][6][7]

Thanks to its semiconductivity and the thickness of the mesh of only one atom, it is possible to make transistors from graphene that are theoretically capable of operating at a frequency of up to 1 THz. In addition, they can be assembled into very compact units. Thanks to these properties, graphene is expected to be used in microprocessors and memories in the future.[8][9][10]

Technological terms:

UP-OCC – pure monocrystalline metal structure without typical crystals on the surface, the highest level of quality of current development, technological know-how of Neotech Dr. Ohno.

OCC – technologically modified conductor in the form of cold rolling of OFC metal and its densification, reducing it by up to 80% of the original thickness, further surface polishing of the conductor and treatment in a cryo chamber.

OFC – conductor made by drawing, which has a long grain structure, i.e. about 50 times better structure for conducting sound than the standard production process

The term flat conductor – as is known, sound propagates through the conductor on the surface and if we want to have as many surfaces as possible for better transmission of all frequencies, we must increase the number of conductors or increase the circumference of the conductor in the case of a round conductor. This brings problems, higher price of wires, thicker cable with the need for better shielding. Neotech came up with an elegant solution of flat wire three years ago. One flat wire is about 2.80 - 3.24 of a standard round wire with a thickness of 0.80 - 1.20mm.

Neotech cable NC-P312 II / P-303 II Rhodium - power connector

A completely new generation of power connectors from Neotech Cable suitable for cables with the Graphene designation. The same technology, the metal parts are made of pure copper, then they are coated with the first layer of silver 2 microns, the second layer is pure gold 3 microns and finally evaporated rhodium. All parts are treated in a cryo chamber against oxidation! This creates the perfect connector from Neotech cable!

NEOTECH NEP-3002G - power cable copper G-UPOCC graphene 3x4.17mm² Ø14mm

is a power cable containing 3 composite G-UPOCC conductors, a combination of OCC copper and graphene. This new conductor represents a significant advance, both in terms of research and industrial applications. The addition of graphene allows to improve the stability of electrical signal transmission at high temperatures while maintaining the exceptional conductivity of OCC copper, which allows the performance to remain intact even at high voltages. The conductors have CL3 PVC insulation, preventing any transmission of electrical discharges created by the double mylar/aluminum shielding and the braided tinned copper. The entire assembly is enclosed in a robust, flexible PVC jacket.

This cable sold by the meter will therefore allow you to design very high quality power cables, also perfectly adapted to carry high currents for demanding HiFi systems. In addition, the excellent quality of electrical signal transmission that these cables allow allows you to offer a very beautiful sound restitution by gaining dynamics.
