Zavfino Majestic USB Cable

@davidvanderbilt They are listed in my virtual system in my profile. The only items not listed are the Nordost purple flare speaker cables which you can see in the pic. They have been "demoted" to connect my Yamaha AVR to the main speakers rather than the Raven tube amp. The only other cables not listed are 2 $30 Pangea ethernet cables for the streamer and Amazon TV.

i suggest you ignore the pissing contest... it is neither here nor there as far as your system and musical enjoyment goes

zavfino sells cables on a money back basis (less a reasonable restocking fee), so just try it and find out for yourself

this journey is most rewarding when hearing qualitative differences (or lack thereof) for yourself and not accepting others’ proclamations or denials

@davidvanderbilt be sure to borrow DH Labs Mirage USB cable. Nice design. Great value! Took a significantly more expensive Audience AU24SE+ to beat it. I’d also add Audioquest to the borrow list. 

Just to add to my post - I owned Kimber b-bus usb, Wireworld Starlight 8, DH Labs Mirage, Audience AU24SE+ and tried Analysis Plus silver usb (around $100). The kimber is barely any different than the generic usb, Analysis Plus was thin, glassy sound with decent amount of glare in the mids, I gave it time to settle but it never materialized.
Wireworld was decent but DH Labs was much fuller, more natural sounding than the Starlight 8.

The best was the Audience. Most natural presentation, smooth and extended. It was in line with the Audience “house” sound. 
 

Good luck and have fun!
 

@jjss49 You're right! It’s a waste of energy. Lol.  

@audphile1 Thanks so much for the detailed comparison! I will add the DH labs to my list. It’s funny you mention audience - after borrowing several interconnects from the cable co the audience Ohno xlr cable was the one I liked the most and ended up buying. Also bought the matching audience speaker cables. I’d really like a USB cable from them as well but the studio two usb starts at around 500. I think I’ll keep my eye out for a used one and try the others on my list in the meantime.
