{"product":{"id":8371576307970,"title":"ThunderBird GroundGoody","body_html":"Whether draining a shield or preventing hum, a ground wire — like all wire — is an RF antenna. AudioQuest GroundGoodys are the only solutions that don’t add RF noise while grounding turntables, ground-boxes, subwoofers, powered speakers, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe often abused “New and Improved” accolade was never truer than with our totally revised GroundGoodys — and so new names were required.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid 6% Silver Conductors: Solid conductors prevent electrical and magnetic strand-interaction. To approach the ultimate Noise-Dissipation performance of our best conductor metal—Solid 100% Perfect-Surface Silver—increasingly thick layers of silver plating are applied to our Long-Grain Copper conductors. Placing the superior metal on the outside of the conductor produces the greatest benefit on overall performance—a superbly cost-effective way to maximize a cable design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-Silver Plated 3\/16 Spaded: Direct-Silver Plating is optimized for sound. It looks dull because there is no underlying layer of shiny, distortion-causing nickel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","vendor":"AudioQuest","product_type":"Tonearm Cables","created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","handle":"thunderbird-groundgoody","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","published_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","template_suffix":"accessories","published_scope":"web","tags":"Accessories, Accessories GroundGoody, DFI Exempt, Essential, GroundGoody, Loaner, Mythical Creatures, ThunderBird, Tonearm \u0026 Turntable Cables, Tonearm Cables, Turntable Accessories, Turntable AccessoriesEssential","variants":[{"id":44354135425282,"product_id":8371576307970,"title":"0.6 m = 1 ft 11 in","price":"108.00","sku":"GGTBIRD060","position":1,"compare_at_price":"108.00","fulfillment_service":"manual","inventory_management":"shopify","option1":"0.6 m = 1 ft 11 in","option2":null,"option3":null,"created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","taxable":true,"barcode":"092592017993","grams":68,"image_id":42371953033474,"weight":0.15,"weight_unit":"lb","requires_shipping":true,"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1},"price_currency":"USD","compare_at_price_currency":"USD","quantity_price_breaks":[]},{"id":44354135458050,"product_id":8371576307970,"title":"1 m = 3 ft 3 in","price":"120.00","sku":"GGTBIRD100","position":2,"compare_at_price":"120.00","fulfillment_service":"manual","inventory_management":"shopify","option1":"1 m = 3 ft 3 in","option2":null,"option3":null,"created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","taxable":true,"barcode":"092592018051","grams":68,"image_id":42371953033474,"weight":0.15,"weight_unit":"lb","requires_shipping":true,"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1},"price_currency":"USD","compare_at_price_currency":"USD","quantity_price_breaks":[]},{"id":44354135490818,"product_id":8371576307970,"title":"1.5 m = 4 ft 11 in","price":"150.00","sku":"GGTBIRD150","position":3,"compare_at_price":"150.00","fulfillment_service":"manual","inventory_management":"shopify","option1":"1.5 m = 4 ft 11 in","option2":null,"option3":null,"created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","taxable":true,"barcode":"092592018099","grams":68,"image_id":42371953033474,"weight":0.15,"weight_unit":"lb","requires_shipping":true,"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1},"price_currency":"USD","compare_at_price_currency":"USD","quantity_price_breaks":[]},{"id":44354135523586,"product_id":8371576307970,"title":"2 m = 6 ft 6 in","price":"165.00","sku":"GGTBIRD200","position":4,"compare_at_price":"165.00","fulfillment_service":"manual","inventory_management":"shopify","option1":"2 m = 6 ft 6 in","option2":null,"option3":null,"created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","taxable":true,"barcode":"092592018143","grams":91,"image_id":42371953033474,"weight":0.2,"weight_unit":"lb","requires_shipping":true,"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1},"price_currency":"USD","compare_at_price_currency":"USD","quantity_price_breaks":[]},{"id":44354135556354,"product_id":8371576307970,"title":"3 m = 9 ft 10 in","price":"195.00","sku":"GGTBIRD300","position":5,"compare_at_price":"195.00","fulfillment_service":"manual","inventory_management":"shopify","option1":"3 m = 9 ft 10 in","option2":null,"option3":null,"created_at":"2024-03-05T09:09:20-08:00","updated_at":"2026-11-10T05:27:08-08:00","taxable":true,"barcode":"092592018167","grams":91,"image_id":42371953033474,"weight":0.2,"weight_unit":"lb","requires_shipping":true,"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1},"price_currency":"USD","compare_at_price_currency":"USD","quantity_price_breaks":[]}],"options":[{"id":10805215625474,"product_id":8371576307970,"name":"Cable Length","position":1,"values":["0.6 m = 1 ft 11 in","1 m = 3 ft 3 in","1.5 m = 4 ft 11 in","2 m = 6 ft 6 in","3 m = 9 ft 10 in"]}],"images":[{"id":40207545663746,"product_id":8371576307970,"position":1,"created_at":"2024-03-24T20:13:52-07:00","updated_at":"2024-03-24T20:13:52-07:00","alt":"AudioQuest ThunderBird GroundGoody -
