''unnecessary butchering of a perfectly good USB cable''
you have again invented what I did or did not do. This has never happened to any of my quality cables.
Anyone who reads and understands my posts will know that I make up various lengths and versions of my own usb cables from Wireworld Starlight and other long cable lengths. This gves me ths insight into important parameters that you do not understand or know.

A fabrication? Hardly!I have a pretty good memory and I'm even better at searching the Asylum archives.
From the Asylum archives, a 2014 quote from fmak:
"Take a good quality and short usb cable. Cut the red (+5V) cable at the transmitting end. I use Wireworld cables 'cause it is easy and neat to cut up and remake if you want to."

this prove anything? Remaking a commercial cable is not butchery and you may actually learn something by doing it. Unless, of course, you want to sell your cables after a few weeks, or you want to fabricate a story based on selective interpretation of what is said.
'Remaking'
LOL!
...so why the denial? It was pretty clear what was said.- I thought my solution was elegant, creating no damage to the USB cable at all. Temporarily block USB +5Vcc pin-1 at the connector with a strip of thin cardboard to test if your DAC requires external +5V via USB.
- You thought my solution was "child's play" and a "bodge up" - your words, not mine.
- Your solution was to "cut up" the USB cable - again, your words not mine.
Is this not what you said? At least two of us viewed it in the Asylum archives.
