AudioQuest GroundGoodys are the only solutions that don’t add RF noise while grounding turntables, ground-boxes, subwoofers, powered speakers, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe often abused “New and Improved” accolade was never truer than with our totally revised GroundGoodys — and so new names were required.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLike Saturn and Jupiter GroundGoodys before them, ThunderBird and Dragon GroundGoodys use premium conductor materials, which are controlled for direction and cold-welded to Direct-Silver Plated #10 size spade lugs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile Saturn used Perfect-Surface Copper+ conductor metal, ThunderBird steps up to Solid 6% silver, significantly enhancing its ability to efficiently dissipate RF noise. Dragon continues with Jupiter’s best-there-is Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe most important news is that our strongest Noise-Dissipation technology, the patented RF\/ND-Tech that distinguishes AQ’s Level 8 Noise-Dissipation, dissipates and cancels most induced RF Noise.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThunderBird and Dragon GroundGoodys can be combined with nearly any analog interconnect cable to create a low-distortion phono cable. The exceptions are AQ’s ZERO-Tech interconnects: The Mythical Horses (Black Beauty, Pegasus) and Mythical Creatures (ThunderBird, FireBird, Dragon) are not compatible with phono cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) Conductors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSolid conductors prevent electrical and magnetic strand-interaction. PSS Solid-Silver minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries and maximizes linear RF Noise-Dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRF\/ND-Tech\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThough a cable’s ground leads are integral to a component’s signal transmission, they also act as an antenna. Thus, they are subject to induced Radio-Frequency (RF) noise. RF noise is a parasitic signal that is typically coupled directly into a system’s most sensitive audio\/video circuits. AudioQuest’s RF-on-ground Noise-Dissipation (RF\/ND-Tech) greatly reduces resulting distortion and signal masking, yielding unprecedented levels of Noise-Dissipation across the widest bandwidth (range) of radio frequencies possible. Our unique circuit topology uses a common-mode phase-cancelling array, providing linear noise dissipation across the entire length of the cable (US Patent # 8,988,168).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirection-Controlled Conductors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA fundamental aspect of AudioQuest's multifaceted Noise-Dissipation technology, Direction-Controlled Conductors ensure induced noise is dissipated and drained properly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect-Silver Played 3\/16\" (4.8MM) Spades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDirect-Silver Plating is optimized for sound.
