USB cable recommendations

@signaforce Not usb but another cable you might want to consider changing is the Zavfino arcadia to Zavfino fusion from DAC to preamp.  Or, maybe you've done it already but you can try swapping the position of the arcadia and fusion.  I've owned both and the fusion is a better cable, at least it was in my system. They are truly a good value cable.

@signaforce if you see a used StudioOne it’s definitely worth trying. 

@jc4659 Thanks, probably agree. Background: Before the M3 arrived, I needed another XLR, so  ordered the Arcadia as a stop gap until I figured out my interconnect strategy. OCC copper, relatively inexpensive. I installed it early pre to amp to begin to burn it in, replacing my mogami 2549. I got instant improvement, so decided to order a 2nd. Zavfino mistakenly shipped the Fusion.
I did a chatGPT search and it thought the combination was perfect, as long as I used the Arcadia from DAC to pre & fusion pre to amp. Logic being all copper OCC sound signature best for M3, speed of fusion best for amp.
Could be BS, but I love the sound. 

@audphile1 2M one at TMC. Longer than I need, & priced a little high, but may pull the trigger. Thanks 

@signaforce cool

hey if I may…on XLRs…

Try Kimber Carbon XLR interconnects. Kimber offers 60 days return.
I recently bought Carbon tonearm cables and XLRs to use on my phono stage.
I burned them in on my DAC where they replaced a significantly more expensive Nordost Tyr 2.

Irrespective of price, top 3 I ever heard in my system.
I also replaced two Nordost Frey 2 power cords with Kimber PK14 Acent on DAC and PK10 Ascent on amp.

My highest recommendation- design, technology, experience, customer service, sound. To me Kimber cables are in a different league from Zavfino. 
 

@audphile1 Thanks. I was targeting the Kimber Select. You are recommending the Kimber Carbon. Interesting.
