USB cable..what do you have.

As I am using a wyred 4 sound DAC-2 with ASYNCHRONOUS USB, the free cable delivered with the unit is just perfect.
With async USB there is no clock signal transferred via the cable, thus transport and interface jitter are non-existent.
In such cases, any USB cable will do.
If the DAC is synchronous adaptive, then the quality of the USB cable will make a lot of difference.
My personal opinion is that synchronous USB is not the best choice in computer audio no matter how good the cable, but I don't want to offend anybody or to hijack the thread and stop here.

Larry_s, cable-induced jitter is a reality. The cable won't "slow down" the bits, like traffic will slow down on a highway. Reflections in non-uniform and ill-terminated cables will change the shape of the signal and that will impact WHEN transitions through zero occur, and that's where the bits are encoded.
Jitter is not a uniform slow-down, is that transitions are not time-equidistant.
I know that many will consider digital interconnects snake oil. I've been in that camp too until reality forced me to face it.
Only the fact that my DAC uses asynchronous USB allowed me to use the cheapest cable sent by W4S. With all other DACs the quality of the digital interconnect had a significant say.
Of course, you may choose to disregard everything I said, that's your privilege and I respect that.
I'm not selling cables here, I'm only sharing an opinion which grew from experience and some technical background.

Thank you, Steve.

Could you, please, elaborate a bit on "Not all asyc USB interfaces are immune to jitter BTW"? I'd like to understand.
I might be wrong, but if the connection is asynchronous, that means that there is no timing sent through it, thus no interface jitter exists.
Jitter from the ADC itself will be there, in the data itself, that's clear, same for the jitter of the DAC's own clock, but that's not what I was referring to.
I meant that transport and interconnect jitter will be out of the picture in the async USB case.
Where am I wrong?
