Cables for Aurender N150
I’ve had my Aurender N150 for 6 months and have been using an AudioQuest Carbon USB cable and a Shunyata Taipan power cable that I had available. I’ve really enjoyed the N150. Have Aurender owners found benefit in going farther upscale for USB and power cables?
For the non-Aurender people out there, the N150 is the current bottom of Aurender models . I’ve had excellent success when upgrading other components’ cables but you can hit that point where you don’t need Ferrari tires on a Honda.

I use a Zavfino USB but my only comparison is the stock/cheap USB that came with my DAC, but, they make great cables at very competitive prices. Construction appears similar to DH Labs. Having said that, I was recently challenged by an AG thread about ethernet cables - I was convinced there would be no difference between my $20 blue jeans cable and something more expensive. I compared a Pangea SE premier and an AQ Cinnamon to my $20 cable. Much to my chagrin the AQ made a significant sonic improvement over the others so I kept it (for now). Based on this thread, I just ordered a DH Labs Reunion ethernet - if it bests the AQ I may try their USB.

@macg19 Congrats on getting the Reunion. It’s quite a good Ethernet cable for the price. Given its silver plated conductors, ensure about 100-200 hours for it to settle. You should hear an immediate difference off the bat with it, and it will likely be more detailed than your Cinnamon. But it will smooth out and become a bit more effortless as it breaks in more. Let us know your findings. |
@txp1 , I am using a DH Labs Mirage USB As well. |
@blisshifi Thx. Will do. |
