i have an Innuos Zenith 3 running through an Innuos usb Phoenix currently connected to a Ayre DAC and before that to a Yiggy. I have tried over a half dozen usb cables including the Wireworld Platinum, The Supra, an Intona Reference, Curious Evolved, and an Audioquest Diamond, among others and nothing sounded as good as the Sablon cable I have in plac now. I own both the 2020 and the Panatela Reserva and either will do and can be found on the used market for your desired price. I’ve read that the EVO model sounds even better but any Sablon usb cable will do and sounds to these ears as if they were made to compliment the Innuos greatest strengths which i take to be its analogue warmth, musicality and expansive soundstage. Best luck in your search.
Please Recommend Cable Between Innuos Zen Mk 3 and Merason Frerot DAC
I have just upgraded my music streamer and I'm looking for a quality cable to connect the Innuos Zen Mk 3 to my Merason Frerot DAC. Am I looking for a USB A -> USB B cable or something different ?
Would something in the $200 - $400 range be sufficient quality ? Here is my system:
Van Alstine SET 400 Amp
Van Alstine T-10 RB Tube Preamp
Merason Frerot DAC
Salk HT2-TL Speakers
I see Upscale Audio has a one meter long USB A to USB B cable it's called "Mirage" made by DH Labs for $260 .
Thoughts and recommendations are appreciated.
