I am going directly from PC to DAC. I thought that anything introduced in the path would potentially decrement the sound quality or at least introduce a change in the sound characteristics. I may be wrong in that assumption.
ANYONE USING AUDIOCADABRA USB CABLES.. OPINIONS PLEASE
Unfortunately, the distance from my Mac Pro to my DAC is 15 feet, the theoretical limit of USB 2.0. Thus, I am concerned that my Amazon USB Cable might not be "sufficient." (DAC is the Chord Qutest) I also can believe that there may be validity to isolating (separating) the power from the data lines within the USB Cable. I would prefer not to spend 2-5K on a USB Cable; the AUDIOCADABRA is $500 or $1000 depending on model for 15 feet.
Although I would prefer to do my own A-B comparison on my system, this is currently not feasible. So, I would appreciate hearing the opinions of those who may have personal experience with AUDIOCADABRA cables.
Thank you.
