@jrareform do you have any experience with Audience FrontRow A>B USB cables? I have one on order and wondering how my Innuos Pulsar and Accuphase DC-37 DAC will benefit from this USB.
USB cable recommendations
I recently purchased the Bricasti M3 for my system & am looking to upgrade my A-B USB cable. I currently have 2 USB cables that I used with my prior DAC (Qutest), a Cardas Clear that I preferred with my Qutest & an XLO ultra plus that I far prefer with my M3. It is OCC copper & actually sounds very good, but wondering if I can do better.
My target price is around $500 used, certainly willing to do less & willing to do more for the ’right’ cable. I am looking for a cable that is absolutely neutral.
I actually tried to buy an AQ diamond used yesterday, but was 2 hours late. Not sure if it was the right choice, but it was a great price & could resell if not right.
My virtual system is available, but my digital side is: Aurender N150 > XLO ultra+ > Bricasti M3 > Zavfino Arcadia > PSAudio BHK w/tele medical NOS tubes > Zavfino Fusion mk2 > SimAudio Moon 330A > Transparent + gen 5 > KEF Reference 3’s.
Please let me know your thoughts and/or recommendations. Thanks!

According to who? You can’t be serious…
I’m able to buy American cables. And American components. People make ridiculous statements on these forums. Never ceases to amaze me |
@fire_water FrontRow is extremely transparent and revealing and doesn’t hide anything. It’s very similar to Shunyata Alpha X. Both will give you the forensics on a recording. But in a cooler matter of fact type of presentation. If your system is on a warmer side sonically, these cables should be nice. If it’s neutral or on a cooler side, you might not like it. Based on my experience with both. |
@audphile1 thanks for the information. I have an Accuphase DC-37 Processor DAC, Accuphase C2300 preamplifier an Accuphase A-48S Class-A amplifier and an Innuos Pulsar Streamer |
