quality of benchmark DAC1 USB cable
stephenbrown2 replied to gakaudio's topic in DAC - Digital to Analog Conversion
one of the largest threads in the history of this site delves into this burning question.......ahem.....(the question of whether or not one can hear differences between usb cables).....search for it.....it is "enlightening" (some would say hilarious) to say the least..... -
There have been three instances in TX of drivers (mostly professional truckers) using a product called 5 Hour Energy .....and reporting (physician confirmed) deafness as a side effect..... ....just wanted audiophiles to know of this, and be careful what you drink on a long driving trip......

I have a new LG from best buy all stainless with something called a "linear compressor"...I don't know what it is, but I can't hear anything at all from it....even when it starts and stops.....complete silence ......

oh jeez.....here we go again....he he he......

.....and that I can still hear a difference..... ...if I can, I will be overjoyed....because that will mean that there is a whole lot about computer audio that is yet to be discovered and understood..... ...so far I must report that I cannot hear a difference, but I am going to try it on these aforementioned two tracks!!!!!!!!!!! i'll let you know....

ok ok I have been chastised soundly......my apologies..... it just (had) genuinely occurred to me that if digital cables vary considerably in their ability to convey digits to the dac from the computer, (but are consistently getting better, closer to the theoretical "perfect" ideal)....then there also (it reasons) must be truly terrible cables out there that routinely scramble and "mess up" the data stream...... if a high end usb cable can make cymbals sound more "real" with more "air" around them, then there must be a usb cable out there somewhere that can make frank sinatra's voice consistently and repeatably sound indistinguishably like a contra-bassoon ........ I honestly wonder if anyone out there has heard such a (sinatra butchering) usb cable.....after all, there seem to be hundreds of people that have heard cymbals sound more "real." And yes, I did read every single word of every single post here, you have to understand, some of us are just getting started in this hobby.....ahem....
