USB Cable Recommendations Under $500

Hello all:

I am searching for a USB-A to USB-B under $500 to connect my Node Icon streamer to my Simaudio integrated amplifier. I have auditioned the SUPRA USB Excalibur Silver Edition and Synergistic Research Foundation SX cables.  Considering the Moon Black or Silver USB cables as well as Audience's Studio Two USB Cable.

I appreciate any recommendations as well as any comments on the cables mentioned above..

Many Thanks!

I have an AQ diamond I'm not using anymore if interested.  It's a great sounding cable!

I’m not Into blue sound, but I would give uncle Kevin a phone call and ask if this is something that can be put on the new icons. If this is an option, this would be way better spent money than the USB cable at this point.

I replaced a Transparent with a WireWorld Platinum 7, this was a significant upgrade. There are several used options out there that are in your price range.

Always use silver for digital.  I had a AQ Carbon that was very good when I had an Innuos streamer.
