Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Here's what I've decided to do with regards to the USB cable issue...

Instead of paying more for a USB cable than I did for my DAC, I'm most likely going to get a second Bifrost! (one for the computer system, and one for the main music system) :)

I did pay $80 for a 1.5 meter DH Labs Silver Sonic USB digital cable, and though it may not contain quite as much pixie dust as some others, I'm hoping it will transmit ones and zeros to the DAC with at least a modicum of aplomb. I don't expect my computer speaker system to compete with my main music system. Still, even with just the analog output, it's sounding pretty decent (especially for "computer speakers"). If the addition of the DAC will improve upon the sound I already have, which I expect it will, I'll be happy enough without having to fret over that last bit of juice I may or may not be able to squeeze from the rock with a much more expensive USB cable.
