I have a dedicated computer for my dac, so I plugged the Silver Dragon into my system and just left it.
But around a year, it started randomly disconnecting from my DAC, where I would have to switch off the DAC and switch it on again to get a signal.
Soon afterwards, it wouldn't even recognize my DAC. I wanted to see if the problem was due to my DAC.
So I switched to a stock USB cable and it worked flawlessly.
I agree with you that not all their cables may have bad quality, but do take their manufacturing consistency with a grain of salt. It seems to be all over the place...
I do have their blue dragon that stills works without a hitch... But the Silver Dragon costs twice as much, and it's twice as quick to break...
Sounds like a cold solder joint since the symptoms are works fine for a period of time, then gets progressively worse. However that's not something one would expect from a $100 cable, but can always happen hand made cables. Did Moon warranty the cable or at least offer to fix it?
