As I've moved up to Diamond, I have a 1.5-Meter AudioQuest Carbon USB cable for sale. Functionally perfect, in preparing it for sale I cleaned the "A"-type connector body (not the connector itself) and rubbed off the dark grey color coating on a portion of one side (the white plastic underbody itself is showing). As a result, I will sell for only $60 (MSRP is $159), including shipping in the CONUS. I even have the original packaging. Can e-mail pictures to interested parties. Thanks for looking. - Pete -
