AudioQuest - Dragon - XLR Analog Audio Interconnect Cables (Pair)

Not only is AudioQuest's Dragon XLR the best XLR 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, the Dragon XLR Interconnect comes as close as currently 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% Solid Perfect-Surface Silver.

At once a direct descendent of critically acclaimed designs from our storied past and something completely and undeniably new, AudioQuest's Dragon XLR Interconnect sets its predecessors on fire and blows away their ashes.

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 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.

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.

Radio-Frequency Noise from cellular, WiFi, and satellites is everywhere. AudioQuest'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.
