Headphoneus Supremus
You find $250 to be expensive for a good dac and headphone amp ?
If I play 176.4 or 192 I have to use the sample rate converter and downsample to 88.2 or 96 as the Dragonfly don't support >96
Could have missed this in the thread, but can anyone advise me on the power consumption of the Dragonfly, especially connected to a portable device such as mobile phone? Just curious if it would seriously shortened battery life, thanks.
Dragonfly should downsample 192 on its own, @least that's what it says on the box.
..Now to find a 6.5 to 3.5mm adapter to try the HD800s ;o)
...... 2 new versions are in the works for 2013 for use with Android and Apple devices.
Dragonfly is able to drive the HD800 to quite adequate volume, but it obviously falls short compare to even moderate priced headphone amps designed for full size headphone such as the Headamp GLite.

Having looked on the Audioquest website, I can't find any reference o the Dragonfly having an amp function?
