Warranty
The Silver Dragon Form Fit Toslink cable was created for portable audio gear with a smaller footprint. The cable is hardened to provide the tightest fit possible. This helps polish the ergonomics of portable headphone listening, and it's now simpler to take your headphones with you "on the go". Each version below has a specific geometry that will precisely fit between the audio gear listed in each cable configuration. Please do not try to alter its geometry. The Silver Dragon Toslink has the bandwidth to deliver up to 24-bit/192k resolution and DSD signals. Four versions are available for your audio connection needs.

Quality You Can Trust
Most stock headphone cables are made of poor, ultra-thin conductors that work as a bottleneck for sound. Poor geometries, no shielding, rubber jackets, and a whole host of other issues in OEM cables can limit the performance of the headphone driver in terms of clarity and definition.
Dragon Cables are handcrafted from quality materials in Moon Audio's headquarters in Cary, North Carolina. All of our cables are created with ultra-pure, single-crystal silver and copper strands and engineered to provide the cleanest, most musical presentation. Our wire is void of impurities and crystalline boundaries, leaving nothing between you and your music.
Cable Design
The Silver Dragon Toslink cable features Gold Plated metal connectors, metal ferrule protected fiber (not plastic like most others), and two outer jackets on the fiber to prevent kinking.
Silver Dragon Sound Signature
The Silver Dragon is our top-of-the-line flagship cable designed to maximize the amount of detail, clarity, air, and instrument separation you get from your music. Silver strands increase the soundstage, clarify instrument separation, and find previously lost high and mid-frequency sounds. Transients appear more cohesive, and the bass is tighter for a more controlled sound.
The Silver Dragon pairs well with all genres, especially Classical, Jazz, Americana, and other music with lots of nuance and instrumentation. That being said, the Silver Dragon can be paired with many other genres as well. If you are a self-proclaimed "detail freak" who loves critical listening, the Silver Dragon will be your cable of choice. It will open up the top-end and add an extra layer of air or resolution. It will tighten up and control the bass. It will add energy and excitement to the performance.

Toslink Connection Tip
1.) To disconnect the Silver Dragon Toslink cable, dislodge the connector tip from the port by holding the connector where the heat shrink tubing is and slightly pulling the connector out (1mm or 2mm); do the same with the other end and pull the cable out. Do not pull on the cable to disconnect both connections at once. This can damage the cable.
2.) Toslink ports with swing doors, like the Mojo, for example, should follow the following practice. This might be a practical design, but this door can cause scratches to the Toslink fiber tip. We have concluded from a customer who complained of issues with the cable that there was an excessive amount of scratches on the Toslink fiber tip. In order to open the Toslink port door, do not use the fiber tip, as it will instantly scratch it. This negates the point of the polished tip on 0.3 micron film. To alleviate this problem, I propose to open the Toslink port door by holding the Toslink connector tip under a, let's say, 45-degree angle. This way, the fiber tip edge metal ferrule will be in contact with the swing door first, preventing the fiber tip from scratching.
3) Properly store the cable when not in use and put on the protective tips that are included with the cable.
4) If the above is not followed, it will result in issues with the cable. The above issues are wear and tear and will not be covered under warranty.
The Silver Dragon Toslink has the bandwidth to deliver up to 24-bit/192k resolution and DSD signals.

Quality and fit was perfect for my mobile rig consisting of IFI Signature amp and A&K 120II this set up is actually considered transportable due to it's combined size and weight I use a hip bag and use this set up for walks this cable remains tucked away inside the bag A+ !
- TNtetsu n.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoPerfect
if you're gonna use optical between the Duoo X10Tii and the mojo2, it's hard to imagine a more perfect cable to use than this one.An ideal combination. My only gripe is that the Mojo2 and the Duoo X10Tii aren't listed in the options, so it's a bit of a guess whether it will fit or not.Short answer, it's, well, perfect!

I bought the cable to connect my AK240 to Mojo. The cable is a very high quality and it fits perfectly just as portrayed in the picture provided by Moon Audio. The cable arrived in Canada at the speed of light. The communication with Drew was very helpful. I am very happy. The combination AK240>SilverDragonToslink>Mojo>HD800 sounds sublime. Many thanks Drew.

Good user interface with excellent EQ. Faster signal gradients and better match for my YBA DT than Mojo but the latter has a more forward and more analog sound. I prefer my FiiO 3ii & Mojo for most music where you want the smoothest timbre of the human voice and Ak120ii for rock passages where rhythm and acceleration at the beginning of the note is important. Note that the Mojo more easily drives my HD800 than the AK120II and has a better defined and slightly wider soundstage. On the KSE1500 the Mojo is also smoother. I use the Ak120ii alone as a compromise solution between portability and sound quality.

The cable arrived very quickly to France. It made a huge difference to the sound with the Hugo / AK240 combination. When combined with the Black Dragon the Audeze LCD-X just got better. These cables significantly changed the sound for the better. I highly recommend them to anyone desiring to get the best from their headphones & hifi equipment.
