USB Cables

"First, USB cables cannot "sound" different...they either allow the data to pass through error-free or they do not."

Seconded. Since USB is a message passing system, all data is buffered and reassembled between host and client devices. No jitter.

If the USB audio device is poorly designed enough to allow noise picked up by the USB cable into the DAC section, then that's probably the least of your worries.
