Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables?

Another person wasting their money on trying to make usb listenable. A few more tweaks, a few more cables, and you will be where I was at 6 years ago, usb sucks no matter what gimmicks you use. Good luck on your adventure, in time you will realize you’ve wasted your time and money.

This is a good USB reference comparison thread. https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/usb-cable-shootout-8-cables-tested.37488/
I suggest picking two USB cables that have sound characteristics described close to what you are looking for and A/B them in your system. Keep the one one that sounds best in your system and return the other one. 
I A/B the Network Acoustics Muon2 against the Intona Reference and the Muon2 stayed. I have tried the top Sablon, Audioquest, and Supra as well. Every USB cable sounds different.

Shunyata alpha or theta USB was huge in my system.  Went with slpha ultimately but theta gave me most of the alpha improvement but found a used alpha online for same price as a new theta.  I'd HIGHLY recommend you find a local hifi shop to let you try different cabling.  I found the Shunyata stuff beat the other brands like wire world that I tried.  Best of luck to you!

@jrareform - Thanks for the Shunyata recommendations! 

@rrboogie - I'll read through that forum post you've provided. I've read many folks are pleased with the Network Acoustics Muon2 cables. I've had them on a shortlist to consider.Thanks for the recommendations. 

@rbstehno - I have an Innuos Zenith mkiii streamer that uses USB. It sounds really good. I'm happy with the sound of my system. Simply trying to up-level as possible. What streamer do you recommend?

@antigrunge2 @benzman @bassbuyer  @cfa88 @glenmschneider - Thank you for your suggestions. I'll take a look at those suggested USB cables. I've read that 1.5 meters is good for USB, but it sounds like you suggest that shorter is better? 

@soix - Thank you! I'll research those cables you've suggested. 

@zlone - Thank you. Our journey with the Merason Dacs continues. 

@jayrossi13 - Thanks for that link. Those are two of the cables that have caught my attention, btw. Have you heard both? And could you describe the impact of the Black Magic Ultra? What's your impression of that cable? I'd welcome your description of the impact in your system. 

@fastfreight - KS seems to be consistenly praised. Would you mind sharing what you feel the impact of the KS cable is in your system? 

 

Thank you. Our journey with the Merason Dacs continues. 

And a pleasant journey it is. I almost pulled the trigger on @mitch2 's MkII the other day. At some point I will have to compare one of those to my Reuss.
