Will a quality USB cable make a difference....
Hi Ed,Let me address the headphone part of what you were mentioning. Two channel speakers and headphones do things a bit differently. That doesn't necessarily mean one is better than the other. Speakers obviously have "real" soundstaging and imagi... 
Are there any albums you consider perfect?
AudiofeilHi. I own and really like a good deal of the ones you've listed but IMHO have some flaws. My list isn't necessarily my list of favorite albums. It's just a list of some I considered flawless. 
Can you recommend some classical CD's for me?
I'm a big fan of Mozart's Violin Sonatas. My favorite renditions come from Deutsche Grammophon that feature Itzhak Perlman and Daniel Barenboim. It's a 4 CD set. 
Are there any albums you consider perfect?
This isn't as easy a choice as you might think. I will try to list them the best I can. They might be flawless but they're not necessarily my favorites. Here's mine: Miles Davis: Kind of Blue - I believe to be the most flawless album of all time P... 
What is the standard for judging a systems sound?

Is Kind of Blue the Best Jazz Album Ever

Will a quality USB cable make a difference....
Ed,I've been using the Nordost USB as my default for some time. I figured that since I have it that it can't hurt. I use two songs to do my A/B comparisons with the Belden Gold. Pink Floyd's "Echoes" and Tool's "Third Eye". They're both long, well... 
Will a quality USB cable make a difference....
I appreciate what Istanbulu said. He qualified it as his experience. On a similar note I have found different interconnects and power cords soud different to varied degrees. I still have the three different USB cables with me and will do some list... 
Will a quality USB cable make a difference....
It's my money and I can spend it or not spend it. They're my ears and I hear what I hear. When I state an opinion I'll say it's my opinion. When I state a fact I'll say it's a fact that is verifiable. As I've stated earlier in this thread I have l... 
headphone amp question
Oops. I misread my own post. I did recommend the Little Dot MKIII after all. Please excuse my silliness. The MKIII is still a very valid and excellent amp.
