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.

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?
Caeadura7,
I'll be updating the thread on Computer Audiophile, but I'll state that I haven't had the chance to listen to it yet and probably won't be able to do a direct comparison with all the others.
