sandyk Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I can relate to the damage that cats cause, but they are living , breathing, companion animals, not an inanimate $6,000 USB cable. There are far better , and much cheaper ways to markedly improve USB ,than throw $6,000 at a USB cable that probably cost 1% of the price to make anyway.

There are laws against bilking people and specific laws against cheating the mentally retarded, but $28,000/meter for a power cable stretches even the credibility of the mentally gullible.

The USB 2.0 spec is completely inadequate for highest quality USB Audio . You at least need a USB cable with improved isolation between the D+ and D- pair, and the +5V and 0V ("earth") pair, as well as using a thicker wire gauge for longer length USB cables to avoid excessive DC voltage drop.

Does this have any long term effect on the exterior of the cables ? I tried almost everything without success with 2 generations of cats to prevent them from using my speakers as scratching posts. As they were rented properties I was unable to fit an additional door to keep them out.
