sgr Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I owned that pair at one time. Really fine sound and well constructed. And you’re right about the cables I tried those options too.

To put my 3 cents: I use Oyade Class A and couldn't find anything better (for my particular setup!) upto 3x higher price range. Your comment reminded me what I know for a fact by now: cable influence is not absolute and highly-dependable on dynamic characteristics (and resulted time-smearing of the bit period) of the driver and receiver interface pair (so never on the cable alone). My favorite demo to prove it is to use a good quality USB signal conditioner (such as Wyred Recovery) with an external DAC using (2) DIFFERENT USB cables (for conditioner's input and output) and then hearing audio differences (sometimes dramatic) just by swapping those cables.

manueljenkin Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Here are some impressions of the stock cable that came with my apogee groove and the supra USB cable. Transport : Surface Book 2015 running windows 10 64bit Music player software: winyl 64bit (and few other bass library based players which sound largely identical minor depth differences aside). DAC: Apogee groove Amp: Apogee groove, Burson fun with sparkos ss3601. Headphone : Shure srh1540. (Also tried with hd800, hd700 and urbanite xl all of which resolve less to my ears). The stock cable from apogee: This is not a bad cable at all (unlike the cable that came with my nx4dsd). It's sturdy, well designed, and even has markings on the body (E318233 PU AWM 2725 80*C 30V KAIBAO). I'll admit I don't understand even a single letter of that but it looks cool anyway. The sound is what I'd call as jack of all trades but master of none. It has a nice weight to the low notes, and fairly good amount of detail. But it lacks ultimate transparency, the weight doesn't look like it comes from perfect reproduction of sound but rather from a slight phase compression. Feels like I'm constantly being bombarded by positive polarity signals a little more than what would be accurate. Staging is fine but again feels mushed in a little, but with binaural is as expansive as ever. Supra USB cable: It takes the exact opposite approach of the apogee stock cable. It does whatever compromises it needs to for extreme detail whoring. It's presentation can be described as laid back bright. Extremely transparent and intense detail. It's somewhat bright sounding. It sounds clean but also has a slight sense of fake cleanliness to it. Compressed voices, violins and especially roughly high passed cymbals can sometimes take an unbearable sheen to them. Forget listening to compressed metal. They feel as if there are knives stabbing your ears. But well processed ones can sound almost angelic on them. Probably the biggest Achilles heel I find for this cable is its lack of weight in the low notes. I hear the low notes, I hear the texture, I hear the pitch discrimination, I hear the layers. But somehow it feels like the bass notes are a bit dry and withdrawn. My srh1540 is very tactile and can actually physically rumble my skull on any good setup I've tried. Somehow this tactility is almost completely lost when using the Supra cable. I hear the rumble and actually hear the difference in pitch even better but somehow it feels less engaging. It sounds "bootleggish" and detailed for lack of a better word. (1.50 is an example of what I'm meaning Another big downside I have of the Supra is that it doesn't sound as good as the stock cable for binaural music. Clearly something that defines spatial presentation is being altered. I have to say that my expectations of binaural is extremely high and that on a normal scale both the cables sound fine. They just don't sound excellent, the Supra even less so for binaural tracks. These deficits aside the Supra is without a doubt on a much higher technical footing than the stock one. The detail and resolution is much better. For most part all of my listening now happens on the Supra cable since I'm a detail freak even if it has some compromises. I would probably try the curious usb cable someday if I had the cash but I don't. Note : I typically close my eyes when listening to music. Yes opening and closing your eyes can change your perception of sound. So some of the spatial presentation feel might change if you listen with eyes closed but the notes on overall texture, resolution remain unaltered. Tl, dr: Stock apogee cable : decent resolution, tiny bit closed in, lots of nice heft to the tones. Supra : fantastic resolution but slightly forced, very sensitive to high pass filters used in recording process, bright and laidback, bass lacks heft and sounds a bit bootleggish. I am looking for an upgrade from the supra now. I want to buy the supra but I don't have necessary funds for it now. I read audiobacon and it looks like chord company's silver cable is a good option. Would like to know other options. Link to comment
xyzzy1 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Thanks, good write up on your experience with these cables. I am quite convinced that various usb cables are not improving sound but rather it’s a competition of which usb cable is less destructive with electrical noise being attenuated and added by each cable due construction and flaws along with noise electrical noise coming from the source. Source noise can cause the usb cable to react badly and make the noise worse. Have you considered trying a jitterbug or an Ifi iodefender with ifi ipower that can replace the source usb power? These helped quite a bit when I was playing with usb cables. In the end I moved to using an optical cable which was a significant leap forward in sound quality over any usb combination I tried.

Popular Post Blake Posted February 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 14, 2020 This is obviously a subjective cable comparison thread, where "usb cable believers" share thoughts on subjective sonic impressions of different usb cables. We have already been through some of the off-topic commentary earlier in this thread. We have other recent threads where the conceptual, objective/subjective discussion and usb debate is more on-topic (I started such a thread about a week ago). Pretty please, with sugar on top, can we keep this thread on topic? motberg, sandyk and RickyV 3 Speaker Room: Lumin U1X | Lampizator Pacific 2 | Viva Linea | Constellation Inspiration Stereo 1.0 | FinkTeam Kim | dual Rythmik E15HP subs Office Headphone System: Lumin U1X | Lampizator Golden Gate 3 | Viva Egoista | Abyss AB1266 Phi TC Link to comment

This is indeed a good option ... however, in the real world of the current gear available to buy, this may be quite difficult to do. A good workaround is to 'adjust' the cable used, so that its properties happen to be in balance with the weaknesses of the gear it's feeding - this is a bit of "playing with rubber bands to make sure things don't come undone" - very far from an elegant solution, but may actually do the trick in a particular situation.

I don't know. I just installed a Supra USB cable between the Innuos and the Satie, and noticed the same thing. As compared with the Belkin Gold USB, the Supra sounds cleaner, but doesn't have the same weight in the bass. I am not sure that I would call it brighter, but certainly it sounds lighter, or maybe even a bit whiter. There is less grit, but more detail. I can't tell you which one is better, though I am guessing the Supra is doing something better, since vocals are a little easier to understand. I am pretty sure the DAC designer is a bigger fan of AES and coaxial, than USB. The Sony Blu Ray player pretty much sounds the same through 1 meter of Apogee Wyde Eye and 1.5 meters of Belden 1694 into the Satie, and always a little darker than the Innuos, no matter what USB I have tried. xyzzy1 1 Link to comment

Popular Post manueljenkin Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 Just wanted to clarify some stuff here. 1. I am an electrical engineer and have worked with VLSI chips. I sure know that nothing is as simple as 0 and 1. If it were that simple, you'd have had thunderbolt in 2000, and CPUs reaching 1000GHz (the clock speed is a bad indicator anyway) by now. I sure know what I'm getting into is not out of scientific consideration. 2. No I don't need a better DAC. Just because some other DAC has error concealment built into its USB receiver to mask USB errors doesn't make a somewhat transparent DAC bad. It just means it wants me to use a good USB cable and is revealing of things. And yes error concealment is a thing. 3. I don't believe in analog cables. Yes, seriously, I don't believe in analog cables. It's well beyond debunked that all changes in analog cables come from load sharing differences, or some bad design in crosstalk. But digital cables are quite complex since we are dealing with pulses in MHz range and reflection, characteristic impedance all play a big role. 4. I am less worried about noise from USB link. Data is sent in differential pairing and negates most of the noise issues. Power noise can be a thing which I do plan to try and fix (single board computer with linear 5v supply on USB bus) but it is less related to issues from reflection and transmission loss. The bigger issues are data integrity based, from differences in phase between the two lines (glitch), impedance matching issues (slow load latching or reflections along the lines). 4. Thanks for the recommendation in optical. I'll try them if I can but I have my reservations with regards to spdif as a whole - recovering clock from the data, a low power implementation of optical link (bad cheap led = bad transmission). I will give it a shot if I can find a good inexpensive DAC that supports optical and a good optical master hat on a budget. mansr and mourip 1 1 Link to comment

Popular Post manueljenkin Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 Honesty, I wasn't expecting such a warm welcome in here. I've been to multiple audio forums and almost all of them (few servers aside) have been extremely hostile with mostly cancerous people who think they know everything (even if they don't know anything beyond surface level abstraction) and everyone else's impressions are placebo. Kudos to the mods for setting things straight!. I've had bad memories being harassed for stating issues with measurements (they use measurements to pass judgement on gear they have never heard and make their recommendations) or legitimately showing with measurements that different music players in windows sound different, based on library and function calls used. motberg, fas42, Iving and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment
