![]() ![]() ![]() In Cobalt, AudioQuest have taken what they've learned from their recent research and development in noise dissipation to employ power-supply filtering specifically designed to dramatically reduce the increasingly prevalent noise from WiFi, Bluetooth, and cellular signals. This superior clock enables DragonFly Cobalt to provide greater resolution and clarity than DACs with multiple clocks. Further, in Gordon's monoClock® technology, a single ultra-low-jitter clock generated from the ESS ES9038Q2M DAC chip runs the ESS chip functions as well as all microcontroller functions. Like all previous DragonFly models, Cobalt uses Gordon Rankin's precedent-setting StreamLength® asynchronous-transfer USB code. Contoured enclosure measures just 2.26” x 0.73” x 0.47” (57.5mm x 18.6mm x 11.9mm), making the latest DragonFly 10% smaller than its predecessors.ĪudioQuest, Gordon Rankin: A Beautiful Partnership.Includes AudioQuest’s new DragonTail USB-A (female) to USB-C (male) adaptor to easily accommodate the increasing number of electronic devices that feature USB-C ports.Improved power-supply filtering that specifically increases immunity to WiFi, Bluetooth, and cellular noise.Microchip's superb PIC32MX274 microprocessor draws less current and increases processing speed by 33%.New, more advanced ESS ES9038Q2M DAC chip with a minimum-phase slow roll-off filter for more natural sound.How is this possible? Like the critically acclaimed DragonFly Red, Cobalt has the robust 2.1-volt output to drive almost any headphone, uses a bit-perfect digital volume control for outstanding signal-to-noise ratio, enables seamless compatibility with Apple and Android devices, and is an exceptionally competent and affordable MQA Renderer.Ĭobalt's precedent-setting performance is made possible by multiple significant upgrades: Meet Cobalt: The Most Beautiful-Sounding DragonFly Yet!ĭragonFly Cobalt, AudioQuest’s new flagship DAC, takes what music lovers around the world have come to expect from the multi-award-winning DragonFly family-naturally beautiful, seductive sound-and strips away fuzz and fog that weren't even noticeable until Cobalt removed them. ![]()
