I am a fan of the flat cables that separate the power and signal cables. I use the Wireworld Ultraviolet cable. You can get the same cable with silver plate, and pure silver wiring, but I don't want to pay for that in a digital setting, YMMV.
A questions I would ask though, I have the DAC4.1, but did not use the USB kit for my DAC, and feed an XLR from a Stello U3. Does the PSU in the DAC 4.1 feed the power to the USB board? or does it come in from the computer? If the power comes from the DAC PSU, then I would look for a USB cable that is lacking the power wiring, and keep all the computer derived power away from your DAC.
