According to AudioQuest:
Beautiful Sound ... From Any Computer: DragonFly is an affordable and easy-to-use device that delivers far superior sound by bypassing the poor quality sound card that is built into your computer. DragonFly is a sleek, flash drive sized Digital-Audio Converter that connects to a USB jack on a Mac or Windows PC, turning any computer into a true high- fidelity music source.Whether you’re on the go or at home, listening on ear buds or connecting your computer to a stereo system, DragonFly reveals all the emotional expression and nuance that makes your favorite music, or movies, so enjoyable. However you connect it, DragonFly simply and easily makes any computer sound better.
Features:
Plays All Music Files: MP3 to 24-bit/192kHz
Drives Headphones Directly
Variable Output Drives Powered Speakers or Power Amp
Fixed Output Feeds Preamp or Receiver
Asynchronous Transfer Ensures Digital Timing Integrity
Two Clocks Enable Native Resolution Up To 24-bit/96kHzFor this special sweepstakes, included with DragonFly is a low-distortion AudioQuest Sydney analog interconnect cable with a 3.5mm "mini" plug at the DragonFly end and stereo RCAs at the other end. From AQ's Bridges & Falls series, Sydney is all that's required to connect DragonFly to a full-blown audio rig just like a traditional DAC or disc player, or directly to a power amplifier. Sydney employs superior materials and design, including solid Perfect-Surface Copper+ conductors, air-tube insulation, and AudioQuest's 3-layer Noise-Dissipation System for low distortion and high performance.

I would love to win
a great device.. worth every pennny... been trying to scrounge for a second one fopr my home computer, but hard to do on a students wages!
It's ok better DACs abound. Portable though.
I've read a lot of good reviews for the DragonFly USB DAC and would love to get my hands on one.
it is an amazing product for CAS audiophile, I am so eager to try.
Digital delights!
This looks great
Amazing product and most affordable for anyone in this hobby.
This DAC looks like a Winner. I can also use the cables too. Count me in!
I want one!
Hope I win
Been looking at this for a while. Would be great to win one.
Be interesting to compare it to my Arcam rDac
Hoping this doesn't turn out to be another finicky audiophile tool and is as easy to use as I've been led to believe by reviews.
I somehow managed to post the same comments twice - see above (note to self - nice try, or maybe not!)
This would be great to take on the road!
Please count me in!!!
Comment.
I neeeeeeeed this!
Pick me.
It's for me

I would LOVE to have this! Thanks for the chance!

This would be great. I need another DAC.
Would like to hear what my digital audio should sound like on my semi-expensive speakers.
... really great!
That looks like a good upgrade from my nuforce udac. C'mon JA, hook me up bro!!
Have read nothing but glowing reviews for this product, would love to have an opportunity to listen and judge for myself.

I just bought a new laptop with a horrible sound card and would love to have this USB dac! Please pick me! Cheers everyone
Let's go!
Looks like great products!
sweet product; "seven come eleven"
I could use an outboard DAC. My iMac is a wonderful device, but the sound card leaves a bit to be desired. I roll the dice...
I'm in for this!
How convenient it would be to have great sound in such a portable package.
How Ironic that it takes a sweepstakes to get people to post on here when the importance of audio testing takes a back seat. Similar to voting for a president I suppose. Why bother when the powers that be will tell us how to think? Sad times.
Pick me! Please please please!
I'll take two.
There are probably all kinds of reasons for it, but it always makes me die a little inside when I read "a resident of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia" on EVERY sweepstake you have :(
Who wouldn't want a free DAC?
It sure would be nice to win.

Unfortunately I spend much of my life away from my much loved home and photo studio audio systems. Since I spend more time listening on the road than I do at home, I need one of these little guys to make it a bit easier to handle the road.
Would love to replace the GoldenGate cable I just got with these!
Your wonderful music will bring tears to my eyes.
Would love to own this!

Me, me, me, me, me!
