Revelation Audio Labs dual conduit USB cable mini-review

Posted by jonbee (A) on October 25, 2014 at 08:34:07

I've been trying quite a few USB cables this last couple of years, culminating in the WireWorld Platinum (see my review link for the others I've tried).
There has been lots of buzz about dual conduit USB cables (Acoustic Revive, YFS, Revelation, iFi Gemini, Light Harmonic) so I thought I'd try that approach.
I bought a used Revelation Audio Labs dual conduit USB cable at a decent price and swapped out the WW Platinum.
I did indeed find the RAL to be a better cable. It did not shame the WW, but there was an improvement in the overall focus, with images being more solid, more body.
Not day and night, but worthwhile.
The cables themselves are nicely made but fairly stiff; not the worst I've had, but in tight spaces it may be difficult to get the cable positioned.
It must be mentioned that dealing directly with RAL has been a painful experience for some. I might hesitate to buy a new cable for that reason, but used they offer very good sound for the $.
