Key Technical Upgrades
-
Copper-Plated RF-Draining Enclosure: Instead of the painted plastic/metal housings of earlier models (like the Cobalt), the Copper uses a high-conductivity, copper-plated metallic chassis. This acts as a far superior shield against radio frequency (RF), cellular, and Wi-Fi interference.
- New 32-Bit ESS Sabre Chipset: Built around an upgraded ESS Sabre ES9218 DAC/amp chip, the Copper delivers twice the usable output power of the DragonFly Cobalt while maintaining a 2.1V output ceiling. It easily drives demanding full-sized headphones.
- 25% Lower Power Draw: Thanks to a streamlined Microchip Technology processor with reduced component density on the board, the device draws 25% less power from your smartphone or tablet compared to prior generations.
- 64-Bit Digital Volume Control: Features an updated Bit-Perfect 64-bit digital volume management system, preventing loss of dynamic resolution or bit-depth as you attenuate volume.
