@txp1 The Audioquest Carbon USB is a bottleneck of that unit. I used one decades ago when I was just starting out. The DH Labs Mirage USB which @oddiofyl is using is many levels better and amongst one of the best on the market despite its lower price compared to the competition. In full disclosure I am a DH Labs dealer but have compared the Mirage to many higher end USB cables in my personal journey before becoming a dealer.
Cables for Aurender N150
I’ve had my Aurender N150 for 6 months and have been using an AudioQuest Carbon USB cable and a Shunyata Taipan power cable that I had available. I’ve really enjoyed the N150. Have Aurender owners found benefit in going farther upscale for USB and power cables?
For the non-Aurender people out there, the N150 is the current bottom of Aurender models . I’ve had excellent success when upgrading other components’ cables but you can hit that point where you don’t need Ferrari tires on a Honda.

@macg19 Congrats on getting the Reunion. It’s quite a good Ethernet cable for the price. Given its silver plated conductors, ensure about 100-200 hours for it to settle. You should hear an immediate difference off the bat with it, and it will likely be more detailed than your Cinnamon. But it will smooth out and become a bit more effortless as it breaks in more. Let us know your findings. |
