Good USB C Cable


Trying out the Wandla DAC which only has a USB C input instead of the typical type B connector. So going from a $1000 A to B cable on my prior DAC to a $5 A to C cable, because I’m unable to find any better cable with a C connector. I will be trying the other inputs as well.

Does anyone know of any better A-C cables than cheapo eBay cables?

A quick blurb on USB-C:

This is the current standard, and it marries power and data delivery with display connectivity. USB-C is what you'll see on most new devices like smartphones, game controllers, earbud cases, microphones, and laptops. Its form factor is small, oblong, and reversible, so it can be plugged in either way (take that, USB-A). The port's 100-watt connection makes it perfectly suited for fast charging and data transfers, even with larger devices.

USB-C can do more than other USB types can, and get it done faster. USB-C has the potential to replace all other cables, thanks to its diverse multi-tasking abilities. It has the ability to power even the most power-hungry devices, like laptops and TVs. It can also transfer 40 gigabits of data per second (Gbps), and can be used to deliver 5K video to external monitors.

 

My new DAC, Master Fidelity Nadac D will arrive shortly; its input is USB-C.

Kubala Sosna now makes their Realization USB cable terminated in USB -C specifically becauses of this DAC.  I do not think it is just for cheapo stuff!

Try this as a temporary solution - while you sort the cable out. For all you know this might be all you need!

@fuzztone Seeing that now. I had originally checked a dealer who didn't carry any with the C connector.

@ghdprentice Yes, that's the plan but this flimsy cable I had didn't inspire confidence, thus looking for another, even if it's just temporary for the trials.

@fastfreight Not seeing that on their website. Regardless, $4000 for a USB cable is not in the cards.

@srinisr Thanks but that's a B to C, I need A to C.

Thanks all for your suggestions!
