@v-fi - Did you see Mitch's recent DAC comparison review? It was quite the well-followed thread as he demoed and wrote about his impressions of each dac. Given that you've got a nice assortment of cables, would be great to hear your impressions once you test them with your new Innuos reclocker.
BTW - Have you tried out those USB cables in your current system? If so, any early impressions you could share?
Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables?
Hi All -
I posted this in the cable section, but thought I’d add it here. Like many of you, I’m always looking to make tweaks over time to improve my system. I’m thinking about purchasing an Innuos Reclocker to work with my existing Innuos ZENith mkiii.
Part of that is obviously adding an additional USB cable.
I read positive comments about the Final Touch Sinope cable. I was wondering if anyone with direct experience with the cable could comment on the qualities of that cable? Alternatively, I’d welcome suggestions on other USB cables you’ve used to up-level your streaming experience.
Thanks in advance!

No I don't believe I saw that, have a link? I always appreciate when people post their in depth experiences. I find that those are often more valuable even than a pro review on some website or in a magazine. That's because the person is writing out of passion and not just for an assignment. Obviously not always true since some people write better than others but you get the idea. So far after trying all the USB cables I have on hand, I'm leaning towards the Pink Faun Ultra id my favorite. But all of them are really enjoyable. Need to spend a lot more time with them before I can make a definitive decision though, and definitely want that Veritas Audax in the mix as well. |
@v-fi - Totally agree. I’ll find the link to Mitch’s “Six Dac comparison” thread here on Audiogon. It’s actually here on the digital forum. I think you might enjoy the read. It’s a fun read exactly because it’s from the perspective of an enthusiast enthralled with a passion for music and the effect equipment can have on sound quality. Will look forward to your observations on the various USB cables. Along with the Innuos reclocker it’s my next planned upgrade in 2025.

Some good info here also for the $$$$ USB options. https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/usb-cable-shootout-8-cables-tested.37488/ |

@luvtubes69 - Thanks for the link. Very apt read for me right now! @jeffreyw - Thanks for your reply. I’ll do some more research on that recommended USB cable. |
