AudioQuest DragonFly USB Digital-Audio Converter and Sydney Interconnect Sweepstakes
Register to win an AudioQuest DragonFly USB Digital-Audio Converter and Sydney Interconnect (MSRP $478) we are giving away.
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.

Had a chance to audition the Dragonfly for a couple of weeks and it is indeed spectacular!
Count me in!!!
I want one!
Please let my luck turn!
Sounds like a great product! I need one!
Yes, have some!
i could really use this!
Nice to see a lot of people are interested in this product.
it's so teeny, but a great addition for my modest components, i think. Like the inclusion of decent cables, too!
Very Nice! Would be great to win one
Hoping I win. Really like these products. High quality and free!
This would be awesome!
I will replace my HRT streamer,
which will go to favorite grandson.
Thanks
is always nice to have around. I already forsee the times when on-the-go listening is made up of a really small dac and amp, all connected into an also really small player without any (external) cables... :D
Jokes aside, this is a really handy device and I'd really love to have it. Guess it beats my odac, too. :)
I would love to win
cool!
I would love to win this
Looks awesome!!
i like radios.
Good for Audioquest. Great product and great company
Love to win, to try this wonder,
Cheers!

Nice!
I could really use this!
a free AudioQuest Dragonfly would be pretty sick.
But not my cables.
I'm in.
This is a nice portable DAC.
...would be FANtastic!
I have open USB ports, this would be a good use for one.
It would be fun to try the dragonfly. Dave
That would be a wonderful addition to my collection of cool things. Go sweepstakes, go.
I'm just a commenter looking to get randomly lucky for this sweepstake.

Wow, would love to run a DragonFly!

Thanks for the chance Stereophile!
This would be awesome for when I am traveling!
Please, Please, Please
Tired of being a loser---Please!
this would be a welcom and useful addition.
and sends it to brooklyn
Man, I never win anything. Like ever. I didn't win the lottery when I played (I've played TWICE even! And still no luck). Then I entered for the headphone amp earlier this year and didn't win that either. Some people get all the luck! Please, oh please Stereophile, pick me and turn my luck around.
I could use a new portable audio card.
I might win this package for my earphone listening on my PC. It looked right and wonder if it sounds right.
It looks right for earphone listening on my PC.
Want, need, now!
And entirely useful, would love to win it!
I would love to try a USB DAC this looks like a winner to me.
I'm in!
Would make for a great addition!!!
Anything but Bleu
Pick me! Pick me!
Big Fan of AudioQuest Products
Since I don't have the cash for a DAC1 USB lying aroung, this would be really nice to try.
In a Bose thread.
This would Rock!
I just bought the dragonfly, but I do not have the sydney interconnect and it looks nice.
I have been interested in this since the pre-release buzz began.
iTunes + Dragonfly = Heaven?
Far out!
Exactly what I need!

I would love this!
I've read a lot of good reviews for the DragonFly USB DAC and would love to get my hands on one.
I would be very eager to try it!
Neat little solution. Good gift for a non audiophile.
I'll take it.
Sexy!
Would love to own these.
I could sure use one in the study...
Pick me! I'll give them a good home.
I need this so my life can be complete.
Most excellent contest , I'm so wanting to try one of these out. Looks fantastic and simple.
I'm so in. Thank you for this contest.
mantis
It will be if I win.
Yes Please! I've been saving up for a Dragonfly... -- well, someday.
I'd love to win this!
This would be the perfect start for me in computer audio!
If I win, thanks! If not, thanks!
I was actually considering giving this little sexy thang to my mom for Christmas. She would definitely not be thrilled, but it would give me an excuse to wear my headphones the whole day.
I need one
Thanks in advance!
Oh yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!! Come to Daddy!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the heads-up on 'Kathleen Ferrier'.... Can't believe it's the first time I hear about this wonderful artist.
I have a modest but nice system at home. It sure would be nice to connect my computer. Finally, a good and easy way to listen to all those iTunes downloads.
I would love a dragonfly DAC!
yup , this looks like a right product for me since i don't own a DAC yet.
An early Christmas gift!
An early Christmas gift!
Thanks for the opportunity.
Thanks!
nice
I'll take it, count me in!
I haven't taken the DAC plunge yet
Thanks for the oppurtunity!
Anyone directly compare this with sound from the big players (benchmark, psaudio, musical fidelity, etc)? I'm curious if it is in that league.
YES!
winner winner chicken dinner
Norman
I hope that I'll be lucky one.
I'm glad I found my account name and password after all this time. :)
PLEASE pick me! Thanks!
Great opportunity to own some excellent hardware. My current DAC (MusicStreamer II) only does 96kHz...would love to finally hear 192kHz music. The interconnects would definitely be an upgrade over my current set as well.
Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I would love to win one!
Curious to hear it. Almost looks too good to be true!
I'd like one.
I need one for my private jet, so please pick me!
Not just read, I want really to enter the Dragonfly.
This is a great computer DAC offering.
Posting nothing profane...not even profound
Expect it sounds good and hope I'm lucky enough to hear it.
Would like to have one!
I could REALLY use this kit...
Dragonfly... that is a great Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush tune.
I like Dragonflys, whether they be DACs or the flying kind.
I could really use this.
I'd make good use of this
This would really perk up my work station head-fi!

I've never won anything in my life so hoping this is the first.
C'mon c'mon
i need a second one!!!!
What a lovely bundle to upgrade to :)
would love to hear how this sounds
This would make a great christmas present. :)

Wondering how good Sidney Interconnect can improve my experience with my iPod & sound system.
hope to win.
I would love to win one of these. I just lost my job with Hostess because they are going to liquidate all of their assets and cannot afford to buy a Dragonfly right now. I tried a NuForce wireless DAC and was not happy with it so I would like to try one of these.
My new iMac needs your DAC!
love the built in headphone jack
It would be nice to finally have great computer sound. Please let it be me!
Hope I win!
I am very interested in trying this DAC.
