Key Features & Technology Explained
Solid Conductors
Sold conductors prevent strand-interaction, a major source of dynamic distortion in cables.
Perfect-Surface Silver Metal
AudioQuest's highest-quality metal. Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) minimizes distortion caused by grain boundaries and maximizes linear RF Noise-Dissipation.
Perfect-Surface Silver RF Drains
100% Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) drain wires are used for optimal Noise-Dissipation.
Level 7 PSS Drains + 72v DBS + Graphene - Noise Dissipation
For maximum RF-Noise reduction, Level 7 Noise-Dissipation adds 100% Perfect-Surface Silver drain wires to AudioQuest's 72v Dielectric-Bias System, Graphene/Carbon-Mesh Network and Direction-Controlled conductors.
eARC - 100% Silver Level-7 ND
This eARC conductor pair features Solid 100% Perfect-Surface Silver conductors and Level 7 Noise-Dissipation to ensure superior audio performance.
48Gbps Bandwidth
Certified Ultra High Speed by HDMI Licensing, AudioQuest's 48Gbps HDMI cables have the bandwidth required to support all HDMI-2.1 features.
8K-10K Resolution
High-speed video resolutions render action sequences with lifelike clarity, brilliant color, and excellent dynamic contrasts.
Description
Sound first. While 8K and other compelling video/gaming features make the HDMI headlines, AudioQuest’s 48 and eARC-Priority Series HDMI cables are the best-sounding HDMI cables yet.
The greater precision and tighter manufacturing tolerances required to deliver HDMI cables that transfer up to 48Gbps bandwidth mean all AudioQuest’s tried-and-true ingredients and techniques matter every bit as much as ever before.
Dragon 48 features 100% Perfect-Surface Silver conductors and drains that have been direction-controlled for the most efficient dissipation of radio-frequency noise; high-loss graphene is added to the carbon layer, sandwiched between layers of metal around the 4 FRL + eARC pairs; a "global" high-loss carbon layer is placed around all conductors; and AudioQuest's patented 72v Dielectric-Bias System further enhances Noise-Dissipation.
- 8K-10K: AudioQuest Dragon 48 HDMI cables can transfer up to professional 10K Ultra HD video. The incredible 48Gbps data rate is made possible by four balanced audio/video pairs each capable of 12Gbps, enabling a surprisingly stronger audio/video experience.
- 4K Performance: In addition to enabling the 48Gbps data rate, the improved materials and design of AudioQuest Dragon 48 HDMI cables significantly benefit the overall performance of your 4K system. All AudioQuest HDMI cables are completely backwards compatible with existing 4K devices.
- Gaming: Supports enhanced gaming features (4K120, VRR, ALLM, QFT) for optimal performance from Sony Playstation 5 (PS5), Microsoft Xbox Series X, Gaming PCs, etc.
- 100% Perfect-Surface Silver Conductors & Drains: AudioQuest Dragon 48 HDMI cables use AQ’s best conductor metal—100% Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS)—along with PSS drains to further improve Noise-Dissipation and thoroughly defeat both electrical and magnetic strand-to-strand interaction.
- Noise-Dissipation (Level 7): For maximum RF-Noise reduction, Level 7 Noise-Dissipation adds 100% Perfect-Surface Silver drain wires to AudioQuest's 72v Dielectric-Bias System, Graphene/Carbon-Mesh Network, and Direction-Controlled conductors.
- Supports 8K/10K Ultra HD Video: Transfer up to professional 10K Ultra HD video with an impressive 48Gbps data rate for a powerful audio/video experience.
- Enhanced 4K and Gaming Performance: Optimized for 4K systems and supports gaming features like 4K120, VRR, ALLM, and QFT for the best experience on PS5, Xbox Series X, and Gaming PCs.
- 100% Perfect-Surface Silver Conductors: Superior conductivity with 100% Solid Perfect-Surface Silver (PSS) conductors and drains for exceptional Noise-Dissipation and improved performance.
- Level 7 Noise-Dissipation: Advanced dielectric-bias, PSS Drain Wires, and high-loss graphene minimize interference, ensuring unmatched picture and sound clarity.
