AudioQuest

Power Cable

The AudioQuest Dragon High-Current AC Power Cable is designed specifically for high and variable current components, delivering exceptional performance and clarity. Enjoy unparalleled audio and video excellence.

DESCRIPTION

High (Variable) Current Cables
Optimized for AC power conditioners, power amplifiers, AV receivers, powered speakers, and subwoofers.

Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) & Perfect-Surface Copper+ (PSC+) Conductors
Prevent strand interaction, reducing distortion. PSS and PSC+ offer smoother, clearer sound by minimizing grain boundary distortion.

ZERO-Tech
Combines low DC resistance and ZERO characteristic impedance for uncompressed high-current transients.

RF/ND-Tech
Reduces RF noise with a common-mode phase-cancelling array and proprietary dielectric materials, providing superior noise dissipation.

Directionality
Controls RF impedance variation to drain noise away, ensuring optimal sound quality. Arrows on connectors indicate the correct direction for superior performance.

Key Features & Technology Explained

Solid Conductors

Solid conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion in cables.

Metal

A carefully finessed combination of AudioQuest's highest-quality copper, Perfect-Surface Copper+, and extreme-purity Perfect-Surface Silver, greatly minimises distortion caused by grain boundaries.

Technology

ZERO-Tech eliminates the electrostatic field between the cable’s high and low signal conductors, enabling linear Radio Frequency (RF) Noise-Dissipation, and uncompressed transients.

Technology

RF/ND-Tech minimises circuit misbehaviour by cancelling induced RF noise.

Technology

72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS) saturates and polarises insulation, allowing clear, dynamic sound against a quiet “black” background.

RF Drains

Direction-controlled Solid PSS shield conductors maximises drain RF noise from the line and neutral shields to ground via the third "ground" pin. The net result is powerful, dynamic, and immersive.

Direction Controlled

All conductors controlled for RF-noise directionality.
