Hi Northberg1... yeah, I'm very curious; thanks for picking up the discussion. Just carrying the Cardas name isn't enough these days. Cables are system dependent, and this is true for USB cables used as a part of a music server system. Computer and DAC are all a part of it. It takes time to burn a USB cable in and experience with other cables to evaluate. I just don't have the time or inclination right now to test this cable right now even though the dealer I spoke gives a 30 return/customer satisfaction privilege.
:) listening,
Ed
