  1. Amazon UK, AudioQuest Dragonfly DAC USB Digital Audio Converter - Red $280.26 free delivery with Prime. Link >>> https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B01DFMV4NQ Not a bad price for new.
  2. Further information: This fantastic little USB based headphone amp and DAC greatly improves the sound from your smartphone or PC, for a very small price. It's the newer version and supports Tidal’s master audio format (MQA) which produces amazing sound. It is in excellent condition and includes all accessories including book, USB cover and pouch. Box has a rip, that's the only fault! Pickup is in Castle Hill 2154 NSW.

  3. Further information: I think everyone here knows what these are. This fantastic little usb based headphone amp and DAC greatly improves the sound from your smart phone or PC, for a very small price. With a pc you just plug it in and connect your headphones, with a smart phone you need an extra cable depending on your device. It supports Tidal’s master audio format at 96khz with MQA which produces amazing sound. It is in very good condition, with just some minor marks and scratches. The only reason I’m moving it on is I upgraded to an even nicer headphone DAC. The sound improvement is addictive Pickup is in Morley. Thanks Photos: Advertisements without photos of the actual item will not be approved.

  5. I was confused about MQA sampling rates when streaming Tidal Masters tracks via some popular streamers, so I asked their technical support departments (and also did some testing). Tidal confirmed that the Windows Tidal software will do 1 x unfolding and offer up to 96kHz to your computer's internal DAC or to external non-MQA DACs. External MQA DACs can do 4 x unfolding for the maximum sampling rate (384kHz). Audioquest Dragonfly DAC is limited to 96kHz, so although they just announced support for MQA via updated firmware, they are not offering higher resolution than you might already be able to get by streaming on Tidal Windows to other non-MQA DACs. Bluesound confirmed their Node 2 streamer (which also has an inbuilt DAC) supports up to 192kHz via all of the streamer's outputs (including their analogue RCA outputs fed by the internal DAC). Auralic offer a non-official way of doing MQA that they developed themselves without using MQA software. Currently it's only available if you opt-in to their beta testing program. I have been testing this on my Aries Mini streamer and it seems to do the maximum sampling rate available via it's internal DAC or USB output, while other outputs will be limited to 192kHz due to the S/PDIF standard. So if you want the maximum MQA sampling rate of up to 384kHz you could: 1) Use Auralic non-official way via internal DAC or USB output; or 2) Use Windows and an MQA certified DAC. Next highest sampling rate would be Bluesound (192kHz maximum via any of its outputs). Next highest sampling rate would be Tidal Windows streaming to a non-MQA DAC or Audioquest Dragonfly (96kHz maximum). Actual sampling rates vary between different MQA tracks depending on the rate the Masters were originally stored in. If you are looking for very high sampling rate tracks, try the Tidal Masters albums from 2L for example.
