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!

There it is! I now have a full loom of the ''Front Row'' XLRs. The money spent on the cables (used) set me back from buying a N200 for now. Yesterday, I downloaded Audirvana & feel NO need to go the Auriender route. My Wiim Ultra & with it's REW, it works just fine with my computer & Audirvana. When I purchased the Aero DAC it came with a 6 month trial for Roon, so if I get bored one day, I'll try Roon, but from what I've read was, that Audirvana works better with the computers. |
@kumizi Yes I did. I was waiting for a used Aurender N200 to show up, then I downloaded Audirvana to my computer & I don't know if the N200 is necessary. Maybe it is? Please talk me into it. |
