USB Cable Comparison Audience / Cardas / Purist / Stealth / Wireworld

I've been meaning to share my findings and impressions from a recent six cable comparison of USB cables.

What follows is a 'work in progress draft' that I will be finalizing and posting on a blogging site.

Getting this posted is a way of lighting a fire under myself so I get the write-up finalized. And to keep my promise to share my findings with a number of Audiogoners.

What is posted is the first phase of the 'shoot-out' involving four cables.

Please note:

- This is not finalized and I will be making edits, and adding information, etc.

- This is the first phase of the comparison.

- The second phase will be posted soon.

Hi David,

Nice writeup. Looking forward to part II.

I agree with Shadorne that USB cable preference can change according to the DAC it is paired with. The Yggdrasil is reported to be relatively laid back sonically so the more aggressive sounding USB cables (WW Platinum Starlight 7) will indeed provide a nice synergy if that is true. The rest of his post is closed-minded nonsense reflecting a lack of actual experience with different USB cables.

Reasoning vs listening, shadorne. Try listening for a change, you might learn something.
