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!

@fthompson251 thanks, but it's- USB Looking for ethernet. I have all my feelers out Maybe someone here has one to sell before they post it on any websites. |
@danmar123 Audience Hidden Treasure is excellent. Not familiar with Sablon but what sets it apart from something like the audience or audioquest diamond or the top of the line wireworld? |
@audphile1 I couldn't tell you. It's all speculation. All my knowledge is from what I read & what other members have said & what I'veread. There has to be something special about the cable that it doesn't last long on the used market. It's just like your suggestion to the Audience Front row. |
Well it’s cheaper than the cables I listed. And it’s unlike to reach the sale volumes of AQ Diamond or WW so that explains the scarcity on a used market. Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s that great. But then it might be. Try it and let us know. |
