I auditioned the Audioquest Diamond 1.5 meter USB Type A to Type B cable for one week and I found them to have the greatest tonal balance, clarity, transparency, resolution, and detail retrieval especially micro dynamics. They use the proprietary Audioquest 72v DBS so you will need a single AA battery. I owned the Audioquest Cinnamon 1.5 meter USB Type A to Type B cable and I sold it to another Audio Asylum member. I now own the Cardas Clear Serial Bus (USB) 1.5 meter Type A to Type B cable because I have almost all Cardas cabling including Clear Power cord, Golden Reference Power and Interconnects (RCA), Headphone replacement cable for my Sennheiser HD-650 headphones and Neutral Reference Digital S/PDIF (RCA). Cardas Clear Serial Bus (USB) is available up to 5 meters or you can place an order for a custom length. It is absolutely neutral and the clarity is just superb. However, the Audioquest Diamond USB cable is far superior and it would be in my system if I could afford it.
Cables do make a difference if you have a high end audio system like I do.
