You're spending nearly as much on a cable as your DAC is worth...think you have your priorities out of whack and with digital info on a cable you won't hear anything different anyway as it get's decoded after that...
Best USB cable upgrade for around $1000
I am looking to upgrade the usb cable between my Hifi Rose music streamer and my Benchmark dac. I have used usb cables in the past from Chord, Black Cat, Curious, and countless others. I am currently using an oldie but a goodie (RDA Poiema R-3). It is a great cable and I will probably never part with it, but I have the itch to try something new. I have been looking at the following cables: Mad Scientist Black Magic Ultra, Sablon Audio Evo, FTA Callisto. Does anybody have experience with any of these cables and can offer any insight.

I’ve tried several USB cables with Lumin U1 Mini and Benchmark DAC 3 HGC. The best cable was the Audience AU24SE+. It was detailed, warm and natural sounding, which complimented the benchmark greatly. I eventually sold the benchmark DAC for the reasons @lalitk mentioned above. |
