Good cost effective USB cables for digital audio please
Hello all, I am going to be trying a new streamer that has a USB digital output to drive my DAC, and would like some user recommendations and suggestions on cost effective (say, under $300, less even better) USB A-B cables. It was interesting to see the Absolute Sound having a $25 Belkin gold USB cable on their recommended list for some time HA!!
I’ve been using RCA digital 75 ohm cables (Canare) for some time and know that an ideal length is roughly 1.5 meters for good signal transfer.
Does this apply to USB cables carrying the digital signal to the DAC as well?
I ordered the Monoprice Monolith USB cable on the recommendation of another user here who had preferred it over his previous Oyaide cable. I was pretty impressed by it, honestly. Especially at it’s ridiculously low price point. I wasn’t expecting much, but I figured I had almost nothing to lose by trying it. I’m still using it, and have no plans on replacing it in the near future. review here https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/cables/messages/17/176921.html You can order it here
