Moon Audio Dragon Digital Cable

The Black Dragon AES cable is specifically built for balanced digital connections. It is ideal for linking CD transports or professional audio cards to outboard digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that feature an AES/EBU input.

While digital cables are often thought to be purely about data transfer, this cable is designed to provide a warmer, smoother, and more natural presentation. It helps reduce the harshness sometimes associated with digital audio, adding body and immediacy to the music.

AES/EBU digital standards require a precise 110-ohm impedance to maintain signal integrity. This cable meets that specification exactly, which ensures accurate data transmission and prevents reflections that can cause jitter or signal errors.

Yes, it uses a dual-layer shielding system consisting of aluminum foil and a 100% coverage braided shield. This combination is highly effective at rejecting external electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, keeping your digital signal clean.

The cable features high-purity silver-plated copper conductors for excellent signal conductivity and is wrapped in a durable Teflon jacket. This combination provides both sonic performance and long-term physical reliability.

The connector plating depends on the specific configuration you choose at checkout. Both options offer excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, though they may offer subtle differences in sonic character.
