Higher End USB Cables


Anyone tried/compared the newer high-end USB Cables (i.e. Locus Design Polestar or Ridgestreet model)? Curious if they're worth the $300+ price tag, particularly since Locus doesn't offer demo or return policy (can't speak to Ridgestreet). I do know there's differences in the cheap throw-away ones, much like different USB ports on the same computer.

I'll be testing the Mapleshade USB Cable Plus in a few days and probably the Kimber B BUS and the Nordost Blue Heaven. Will report back once I have some opinions. The only reference that I'll still have will be the LD Axis, which is still here at home.
Shameless thread tag. I am interested in Reverendo's results. I am on the verge of a USB cable upgrade myself.
Mapleshade cable has arrived. looks very flimsy, but don't want to judge the book by the cover.
will report when I get around to comparing. will probably do a first impression and then let it burn-in in order to compare.

Hello Reverendo...
Are you ready to put your impressions about Kimber cable in comparison with the others?
