AudioQuest DRAGONFLY DAC BLACK 1.5 Global
DragonFly Black, the most affordable model of the award-winning DragonFly family, has been praised by Darko.Audio as “the quintessential everyman hi-fi product,” while its more sophisticated sibling, DragonFly Red, combines significantly improved performance with still exceptional value. The ESS 9010 DAC chip in Black and the higher-performance 9016 chip in Red employ minimum-phase filtering for naturally detailed sound.

While DragonFly Black uses a high-quality headphone amp and analog volume control, DragonFly Red includes a more advanced ESS headphone amp and a bit-perfect digital volume control that resides on the 9016 DAC chip itself—a sophisticated implementation that gives Red a unique combination of power and grip over the music. DragonFly Black outputs 1.2 volts—enough power to successfully drive all preamplifier input circuits and a wide range of today’s efficient headphones. With its higher 2.1-volt output, DragonFly Red is compatible with a wider range of headphones, including power-hungry, low-efficiency models.

Pros

For your money is not bad

Minuses

This is not a top DAC and the corresponding strapping

Review

If the budget is extremely limited and there is a need to get a good sound from a USB PC port is an excellent choice. You should not, of course, expect a super sound or what separation of tools on the stage. It is wonderful to go to electronic music. Great as an amplifier to a capricious tight not very expensive headphones, up to $ 300. I recommend the purchase.

Probably the price

Review

This is the first DAC to touch the sound of Hi Fi. Initially, I bought it with an adapter for the iPhone, the thing is generally super -mobility, although a little bulky. From the iPhone- the color is green, from the laptop- 96kHz- the color is pink. And from the computer, my Dali IO 6 actually played! Separately, I will say that for the correct sound, IO6 should be included in the noise!

Suddenly ... very unexpectedly from such a small "dragonfly". Such a small "flash drive" and such a change in the picture of sound. I purchased a system to supplement the Hi-Fi, where the task was set to play music from the phone. Smartphone as a source of broadcasting, storage is a map of the smartphone. I achieved the goals of the set. The cheap Sony Xperia X smartphone in combination with the Dragonfly and the withdrawal of analog sound to the amplifier complemented the available Hi-Fi system. He killed several birds with one at once with one shot: the need for a terribly expensive, crooked and non-ha-remead of a player disappeared. Xperia with a bang reproduces FLAC in Hi-Res quality through the Sony Music Center application (I highly advise this underestimated program). Yes, I really forgot to say that the dragonfly and Sonya need to cling through the adapter on the USB. But there are no problems with this and this transition can be found in any store. The Dragonfly Audioquest Dragonfly is very advised.

Pros

Warm "tube" bass sound and incredible power reserve on low -power headphones

Minuses

restriction in the reproduction of hires in 96kHz

Review

acquired for a replacement of a similar DACP from FIIO The first impressions were not in favor of the "dragonfly", since FIIO has a more "fleshy" sound But further listening showed the greater correctness of the "dragonfly" in the upper -frequency range I compared with the OPPO DACT 2 in the salon Pult.ru (source - laptop) - absolute classmates, although Oppo is two times more expensive. The conclusion is a very worthy DACA model, if not to say that the best model is in this price category. What Hi-Fi? This has been confirmed for several years Actually, I trusted the assessment of this publication, then there was a real opportunity to make sure that in comparisons with other DACs in this

Pros

Minimalism of USB flash drives in combination with a high -quality sound picture from what he heard!

Minuses

A subjective vision of the situation: with the acquisition of DACs, many will have a need for a long time to shave music on CD media.

Review

The first thing I want to note;-when connecting to the laptop, no particularly difficult manipulations in OS Windows 10 had to be done, the system made the sound of the sound by default. And then wearing the headphones, your ears begin to caress the flows of sound waves, in which it is pleasant to plunge with your head more and more often! Departing from the lyrics to the terms, I must say that the sound acquired expressive contours of the entire spectrum of frequencies, smeared, inexpressive forms of sound disappear. The frequency response looms with a picture with a clearly defined musical scene in the field of average frequencies, the low ones fill the place allotted by him without replaying in the foreground. The percussion in the high area is much brighter. Personally, for all this, I put Dragonfly Black V1.5 an estimate 4 with plus, only because, this is the first digital signal converter I heard into an analogue, there will be something else to strive for!
