Generic USB 2.0 cable vs. DH Labs USB?


Is there an audible difference using a high end USB cable from PC to DAC?  I'm thinking it shouldn't make any difference when transferring ones and zeros.  I stream Tidal and Qobuz.  I'm currently using Amazon, brand x, 5 meter.  Your opinions or experiences?

 

My system for context:

ARC Ref 6SE preamp

ARC Ref CD-9 DAC

ARC Ref 80SE amplifier

Quad ESL 2812 speakers

Transparent Audio speaker cable

Transparent Balanced XLR interconnects

I like silver plated cables for digital. Audioquest has several flavors that have silver coating and you can choose based on how much you feel like you want to spent.  Always upgrade from generic.
