Best USB cable upgrade for around $1000
I am looking to upgrade the usb cable between my Hifi Rose music streamer and my Benchmark dac. I have used usb cables in the past from Chord, Black Cat, Curious, and countless others. I am currently using an oldie but a goodie (RDA Poiema R-3). It is a great cable and I will probably never part with it, but I have the itch to try something new. I have been looking at the following cables: Mad Scientist Black Magic Ultra, Sablon Audio Evo, FTA Callisto. Does anybody have experience with any of these cables and can offer any insight.
I have Silver in my second system that works well with Burson DAC. My main system is analogue only and there I have two pairs of Wywires Diamond interconnects. Great cables. I used to have Platinum interconnects and Purist Audio Neptune, upgraded to used Diamonds at incredible (to me) cost and have no regrets whatsoever. Still have the Neptune in the second system. I am in fact thinking of upgrading the Silver USB to the Platinum |
@jerrybj What was the difference between the Black Magic and the Black Magic Ultra? I understand that the Black Magic is a full sounding cable with body and tonal density. Is the Ultra similar in these aspects? |
