AudioQuest DragonFly Copper USB DAC / Preamp / Headphone Amp

DragonFly Copper USB Digital-to-Analog Converter, by AudioQuest.

AudioQuest DragonFly Copper, the latest and most sophisticated member of the award-winning DragonFly franchise, is a portable USB DAC (digital-to-analog converter), preamplifier, and headphone amplifier that bypasses the audio circuitry in laptops, computers, and smartphones to deliver cleaner, clearer, more naturally beautiful music to headphones, powered speakers, or complete audio systems.

Featuring a highly efficient 32-bit ESS Sabre DAC chip, a copper-plated RF-draining case, and twice the output power of any previous DragonFly, Copper delivers class-leading performance matched by physical and sonic beauty.

Since its introduction in 2012, the award-winning AudioQuest DragonFly DAC-preamp-headphone amp has received enthusiastic recommendations from the New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Men's Health while earning glowing praise from the world’s leading hi-fi publications.

With more than 300,000 DragonFlys sold worldwide, this little critter has proven capable of disarming even the most rigid audio skeptic.

Like all AudioQuest products, the award-winning DragonFly has benefited from gradual refinements made possible by better parts, better materials, and AudioQuest's own insatiable desire for better sound.
