I'd like to start a discussion about Blue Dragon cables and Moon Audio. Please tell me your experiences and I'll tell you mine

Thanks, Paul

Methinks the OP tricked you into showing yours …

I know this is an older thread but I feel compelled to share my thoughts about the Blue Dragon PCs.  I bought a pair of them earlier this year.  I gave them ~45 days or so of run in and they just never seemed to float my boat.  I tried one on my DAC (PS Audio DS DAC at the time and Codex recently) and my Zidoo UHD3000 video/multi-channel music streamer.  I even tried one for nearly a month on my Ayre KX-5 Twenty preamp.  AT this time I did preamp and DAC and used another cable on the Zidoo.  It just felt like something was 'off'.  But being as this was over a period of about a month and a half, you kind of lose perspective (and time, apparently).  Until you make a change.  And I simply rotated in my existing cables which are Audio Sensibility Testament SEs.  These are similarly priced PCs and also similar in construction (high purity OCC copper).  When I turned everything back on with my AS cables inserted, I immediately said, wow!  That's it.  That's what was missing.  The Blue Dragons are very dull, bloated and rolled off sounding.  And the soundstage is more closed-in as a result.  No clue why there is such a noticeable difference between these two cables.

Moon Audio are also very strict about their return policy.  Hell, I never even asked for my money back.  I offered to 'upgrade' to the Black Dragon if they would allow me to trade in my pair of Blue Dragons.  It was a hard no despite my cables being perfect with all packaging.  A policy is a policy, I guess.  But it's not how I've run my business for 30+ years, so I don't fully understand the mentality.  They could have kept me as a customer.

Anyway, I can't recommend this company's power cables.  You can do far better for right around the same price.  In fact, I have cables that are less expensive which don't ruin the sound like these did (AQ NRG-2s were $100/ea).  I just wanted to try something new.  Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose...  Live and learn.
