Silver Dragon Toslink Digital Cable

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 24bit/192k resolution and DSD signals. Four versions are available for your audio connection needs.

*Designed to fit most Astell&Kern DAPs, except SP1000M, SE200, SE180, SE100, SA700, KANN, SR25 mkii, SR25, SR15, AK70/AK70MKii, and AK Jr.

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.

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 pull the connector out (1mm or 2mm) out; 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 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 deg 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 above is not followed it will result in issues with the cable. These above issues are wear and tear and will not be covered under warranty.
