Audioquest Mythical Creature Series Dragon with Double 72V DBS XLR Interconnects - Pair
Not only is Dragon
the best interconnect AudioQuest has ever made, it’s quite possibly the best
the world has ever seen or heard.
With its ultimate
combination of world-class materials and cutting-edge Noise-Dissipation
technologies, Dragon comes as close as presently possible to AudioQuest’s sonic
ideal — completely invisible cable. It features Solid Perfect-Surface Silver
(PSS) conductors, ZERO-Tech, FEP Air-Tube insulation, Silver-Plated RF-Draining
Barrels, and Level-7 Noise-Dissipation in which even the shield-drains are 100%
PSS.
No expense has been
spared, no detail neglected.
At once a direct
descendent of critically acclaimed designs from Audioquest’s storied past and
something completely and undeniably new, Dragon sets its predecessors on fire
and blows away their ashes.
All Mythical
Creature interconnects are available with custom-made RCA and XLR terminations.
Features
ZERO-Tech (No Characteristic Impedance) for Linear,
Wide-Bandwidth Noise-Dissipation
The only way to avoid characteristic-impedance
mismatch-effects between a cable and its attached source and load circuits is
to prevent the cable from having a characteristic-impedance. ZERO-Tech succeeds
by eliminating the electrostatic field between the cable’s high and low signal
conductors, enabling linear (consistent octave to octave) Radio-Frequency (RF)
Noise-Dissipation, and uncompressed transients. In order to preserve
ZERO-Tech’s complete isolation between signal conductors, a Dual-72v DBS pack is
included for XLR cables.
Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) Conductors
Solid conductors prevent electrical and magnetic
strand-interaction. PSS Solid-Silver minimizes distortion caused by grain
boundaries and maximizes linear RF Noise-Dissipation.
FEP Air-Tube Dielectric
Positive conductors benefit from almost no contact between
metal and its FEP insulation, which is notable for its superior dielectric
constant and minimal signal interference. Negative conductors benefit from
intentionally “lossy insulation” — no air and no FEP helps maximize the
negative connection’s different job.
72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS)
Insulation is also a dielectric that can act like a
shunt-filter. Biasing minimizes dielectric-noise and linearizes the filter,
significantly improving wide-bandwidth dissipation of induced RF noise.
Level 7 Noise-Dissipation:
PSS Drains + ZERO-Tech + 72v DBS + Carbon/Graphene Mesh-Network +
Direction-Controlled
Radio-Frequency Noise from cellular, WiFi, and satellites is
everywhere. AQ’s Level 7 Linear Noise-Dissipation includes a carbon &
graphene resistive mesh-network, direction-controlled conductors, 72v DBS, and
Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) drain wires, significantly minimizing RF
Noise masking effects.
Hanging-Silver over Red-Copper Plugs
AudioQuest’s finest plugs feature superior Hanging-Silver
(not tumbled) directly over extreme-purity Red Copper.
Silver-Plated RF-Draining Barrels
Grounded Silver-Plated Barrels maximize Noise-Dissipation by
preventing a metal barrel from capacitively coupling RF to the conductors.
