Hello,
I just got an Audioquest Carbon USB cable ( http://www.audioquest.com/usb-digital-audio/carbon ) yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised by the results. I originally got it to decrease as much noise as possible in my signal chain but I didn't think it would have a big impact on sound quality. Here's my setup:
Ebtech Hum Exterminators ->
Monster Power Station Pro 1000->
2010 Apple iMac ->
*Audioquest Carbon USB Cable* ->
Apogee Duet 2 ->
Mogami Gold TRS Balanced Patch Cables->
KRK Rokit 5 2nd Gen & Shure SRH 440
I listened to the Shins " Port of Morrow" and Wilco 'The Whole Love" and everything sound clearer and a tad louder than the stock USB cable. Has this happen to anyone else regarding USB cables?
