Silver Dragon Cables by Moon Audio

Posted by drubrew on April 1, 2003 at 04:59:09:

The review is finally out, and it's a winner!! The Silver Dragon is the first of a series of audio cables to be released by Moon Audio. In the next coming months there will be several other new products. 2 new Power Cord designs, one for front end equipment and one for amps, a Digital Cable, and a Speaker Cable and a Phono Cable. All cables are sold direct and will not be available through retailers. This way the savings are passed on to the consumer.
Thanx

Customer Comments on the Silver Dragon:

Drew, the interconnects sound great. The cables replaced a pair of Kimber Silverstreaks with WBT connectors. Right off the bat the sound was much more relaxed, open at the top and bass was more extended and detailed. At first, vocals were a bit harsh and had a bit of an echo, but the cables are still breaking in and this is now beginning to smooth out. (Actually, it's been my experience that silver cables take a while to break in and I had a similar experience with my Monarchy Audio pre-amp, which is all silver cable wired). Right now, the cables are beginning to "disappear" as far as leaving a sonic signature, which is the absolute best thing a cable can do. Thanx Ray (GatoTrudy@aol.com)

Drew,the silver dragon cables continue to improve. They are GREAT! Now here is my problem: trying to describe the sound of audio equipment is similar to trying to describe the taste of wine, which people around here try to do a lot and in my opinion make fools of themselves in the process.That having been said, to me the sound has an overall improved quality. It is less harsh, more detailed, less background noise and like that. Sorry I could not come up with anything more profound; however, you may feel free to use me as a reference in the future.Thanks,Peter (pjm44@aol.com)

I was pleasantly surprised at the level of resolution that these relatively inexpensive interconnects were capable of. They replaced a set of Creative Cable Concepts 3.0M-C interconnects, which I felt had the right balance for the D/A convertor to line stage run in my system. I have listened to perhaps 10 other interconnects in that position before settling on the CCCs. They had all of the frequency extension and harmonic richness of the CCC with an additional level of musical detail.
