DragonFly Cobalt
USB Digital-to-Analog Converter
DragonFly is a USB digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed to deliver cleaner, clearer,
more naturally beautiful sound from any computer, smartphone, or tablet DragonFly's
unique design allows for playback of any file type regardless of resolution Natively,
DragonFly is capable of decoding 24-bit/96kHz data (For files with higher sample rates,
your computer or mobile device, in conjunction with its playback software, will resample
the data to a compatible resolution. For more details, see "The Importance of Format.")
DragonFly represents the culmination of several significant achievements
Working closely with Microchip®, a leading provider of microcontrollers and analog
semiconductors, AudioQuest and acclaimed engineer Gordon Rankin developed
sophisticated software that enabled the implementation of a new, high-performance
class of USB microcontroller Thanks to their exceedingly low power consumption
4
and extremely low-noise power supplies, the Microchip® microcontrollers achieve
unprecedented levels of efficiency and signal-to-noise ratio, regardless of bit- or
sample-rate Meanwhile, significant advances in DAC chips have allowed us to surpass
the performance of even our multi-award-winning DragonFly Red
DragonFly Cobalt uses monoClock® technology and the StreamLength® asynchronous
USB code*
With monoClock® technology, a single ultra-low-jitter clock generated from the ESS
ES9038 DAC chip runs the ESS headphone amplifier as well as all microcontroller
functionalities This single ultra-low-jitter clock enables DragonFly Cobalt to produce
greater resolution and clarity than DACs that employ multiple clocks
StreamLength® asynchronous USB code ensures improved delivery of the audio
samples to the DAC chip It produces low jitter, low resource load, minimal packet
errors, world-class audio playback, and reliable connectivity between our DAC
and any computing device compliant with USB Host Mode (as set forth by the USB
Organization) StreamLength® is compatible with the USB Audio Class (UAC) and
requires no additional drivers, making DragonFly virtually plug-and-play for Apple™,
Windows™, iOS™, and Android™ users
Additionally, DragonFly is software upgradable In today's fast-paced digital world,
longevity in a hi-fi component is increasingly rare—at any price AudioQuest believes
that today's digital devices should evolve as technology itself evolves, thereby delivering
musical pleasure for many years to come With our free Desktop Device Manager
