"What makes the Audioquest Dragon so expensive? What is different about it? It uses silver wire and the dialectic battery. I may try to pursue how that works and how it benefits the design." The battery maintains a constant/stable polarization of the dielectric: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/dielec.html and:

Quick power cord question:
With a DIY power cord that I just made, (pure, solid .9999 12 gauge silver) the tubes in that mono amp seem to be a little brighter than the other amp with the original power cord. So, do you think the tubes are brighter because they are getting more power through the new DIY cord or is the amp having to work harder and that’s why the tubes are brighter?

@ OZZY= More ’’power’’ then the wall socket and the wall wiring can deliver? No. The power draw of all appliances is by its design. Not by the power cord. As (oldhvymec) said, brighter is not better.That's not what he said. Goodness, the lengths some will go to. By the way, all light dimmer switches are placebo as well. All the best, Nonoise |
Mr.
rodman99999 How expensive is that Audioquest Dragon? Did you know that silver conducts electricity, only 5% better than copper? But it costs 130 times more. In other words, If you take a silver wire, with 5% more cross section than Silver, at the same length, they will measure identical. For the price, it will cost 130 times more. Could you please explain, what justify that price for no electric benefit? About the battery maintains a constant/stable polarization of the dielectric: I wonder how I reached to my age without ever hear about it or need it? |
