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.
I’m very much enjoying my Audience Hidden Treasure Ethernet cable. No complaints, no desire to upgrade.
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!

@audphile1 If you find time, come over with the cable & we'll hear for ourselves. We can go to Harold's & get lunch on me... |
@danmar123 forget cables now I’m craving matzah ball soup…see what you did? |
Sablon Ethernet cable makes good cables. Also check out, Final Touch Audio’s Metis Ethernet cables. I can’t praise them enough for their smoother textures, and a more organic presentation. Everything just breathes a bit easier. I also have an optical isolation in my signal which helps tremendously in aforementioned presentation. |
