USB Stick DAC - Digital to Analog Converter. It's the same discreet little animal as previously, now it's DragonFly v1.2.
DragonTail is a USB 2.0 extender for use when a USB gadget (such as AQ's DragonFly ® USB Stick, Digital-Audio Converter or a flash drive) is too huge to fit next to other occupied computer system ports.
Dragonfly v1.2 - Plays All Music Files: MP3 to High-Res ; Drives Headphones Directly ; Variable Output Drives Powered Speakers or Power Amp l
Fixed Output Feeds Preamp or Receiver ; Asynchronous Transfer Ensures Digital-Timing Integrity ; Dual Fixed-Frequency Master Clocks Enables Optimal 'Clocking' (Digital Timing) for All Sample Rates
DragonFly v1.2 plugs directly into a USB jack on a Mac® or Windows® PC. By bypassing the computer's internal sound card, DragonFly delivers much more articulate, dynamic and involving sound than what can be heard from the computer by itself, turning any computer into a true high-fidelity music source for headphones, ear buds, and home-entertainment systems.
DragonTail's signal-carrying conductors are controlled for digital-audio directionality for more engaging, "3D" sound. Like all AudioQuest cables, components and accessories DragonTail is designed and manufactured for low distortion and maximum performance.
