What are the top 3 USB cables being used today in reference systems?

I am looking for a highly rated USB cable that stands head and shoulders above the rest. Is there such a cable?

Reading this thread has been informative but also seems like there are so many choices out there, and what cables do what is sort of unclear to me. Has anyone tried this one? This seller seems to advertise on the used sites a good bit. I think I would like to stay in the expensive but not crazy price of say a couple hundred bucks max. Avanti Audio USB
