RE: PSA: Chinese Odin Gold USB Cable Problem





The OP was related to the usb cable in question not holding a handshake or connectivity to his device | not regarding sound in the least, yet as you're relying upon using an iPad connected to your DAC versus your Mac Mini, which I can't understand why?, as you can stream from both, whereas via the Mac Mini all you've to do is link your streaming services directly from it.

Let's not forget I've gone through all of 34 or so usb cables to date | ranging from $35-$945, as well as sampled 4 of them via the Cable Company tapping out around $1.600, just for the sake of curiosity | and knowing you personally have a bias towards silver or to an extent even silver plated copper, doesn't warrant how this cable rendered music, just maybe it's your hearing that needs to be questioned?, as this cable literally beats the living shit out of every copper based design that has entered my system since 2014 | as well as two pure silver usb cables, namely the original Curious | latter more upscaled Curious Evolved at $380 | $585 respectively.

In my very very selective manner of judging how music is rendered properly, is based upon truth of tonality | timbre | accuracy | emotional impact | realism | textual balance, as I've to then imagine most of the early 50s | mid 60s recordings you focus on, merely aren't resolving enough to allow said beauty of this cable to be clearly heard in its truest form.

And in truth, knowing you never even allowed it to fully settle in, your statement is a blanket one at best. Just the facts.

Lastly..., as stated I'm still present | yet only care to speak on topics of interest more so these days | so in someways I'd advise you to speak on on what you know?, in said case, I'm well aware you don't.
