Blue Dragon Premium Cable for Fostex Headphones

For clarity without coloration, pair your Fostex TH610, TH900 MK-II, or TH909 headphones with a Blue Dragon Premium cable. The copper-based Blue Dragon is a calm and neutral-sounding cable that will "clean" the sound of your headphones without warming or brightening it. You can think of the Blue Dragon like a wipe for your eyeglass lenses -- you're removing obstructions to the best view but not altering your prescription. You'll enjoy a clean, clear sound without added coloration. The Blue Dragon is great for vocal performances and genres like Classical, Americana, and Country where a more relaxed, organic sound is desired.

The Blue Dragon Premium Cable features 4 x 24AWG Teflon-insulated stranded conductors using pure single crystallized UP-OCC copper with 7N purity 99.99998%. Dragon Premium cables offer the same quality construction as our standard Dragon cables, but with extras like Mundorf Msolder SUPREME SilverGold and premium rhodium-plated Furutech connectors that look and feel great while enhancing your listening pleasure. Get ready for new levels of clarity and detail that will make you fall in love with your Fostex headphones all over again!

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.

Premium Dragon Cables offer the same quality construction as the standard line, featuring UP-OCC 99.99998% pure conductors and matching cable designs with a few upgrades. Cardas Silver Solder is replaced with Mundorf MSolder SUPREME Silver-Gold mix at every connection point, and premium Furutech Rhodium connectors are included to enhance the look, feel and listening pleasure of all your hifi music sessions. When you are trying to squeeze out every last percentage point of performance, the Premium version makes sense. The Furutech Top Line connectors are quite simply the best made, and every point of signal saturation makes a difference.

Is there a night and day difference between the sound quality of the standard and premium? No. Is the Premium the best of the best? Yes. These cables are meant for cream-of-the-crop headphones where every detail makes a difference in bringing you closer to audio bliss.

Blue Dragon Sound Signature

The Blue Dragon is our value fullsize headphone cable. Using copper strands, it combines the neutrality of the Black Dragon with the clarity of the Silver Dragon at a lower price point. The Blue Dragon is a good fit for improving dynamics without adding coloration. Its calm and neutral sound make it a great place to start with premium cables.

Blue Dragon and Fostex Headphones

Fostex Headphone Connector

This cable features a 2-pin proprietary connector that is compatible with most Fostex headphones, like the TH-900, TH-909, and TH-610.

Cable Design

The Blue Dragon Headphone Cable is constructed with four conductors made of 99.99998% pure copper. These conductors use varying size stranding, providing more flexibility and a longer lifespan than solid core cables. These conductors are then encased in a braided wire shield, foil, and teflon to protect the audio signal from electromagnetic interference and reduce cable noise. The outer jacket is composed of blue polyethylene to create a durable, flexible shell.

Hack Your Headphones

Dragon Cables are an easy do-it-yourself upgrade to your favorite headphones with detachable cables. With a wide array of connection options, a plug-and-play cable is just a few clicks away.

We also offer custom headphone hacks for your hard-wired cans, like many Grado, Sennheiser or AKG headphones. For more information on custom headphone modifications, visit our Hack Your Headphones portal.
