Don't have mine anymore but just sharing; Audiostream review of the Intona:

No, that's because I've got it! Hi Antoine! Thanks for posting this as it reinforces the benefits that I've heard. The first thing I noticed was the widening and deepening of the soundstage and it sounded as if another veil had been lifted from the music. I must admit that I've been using a cheapo cable on the output of the Intona, but I'm going to upgrade this with a 20cm cable from Curious. Are there any other makes you can recommend?

Cheers!

Alex.

Hi Alex, I know you do and glad to see you're enjoying the Intona!

Sorry, the thing I dislike most in this hobby is comparing and shopping for cables. I tend to go for cables that are popular and have some consensus of being good. That's how I got the Curious and the TotalDAC D1 before it. I like the Curious cables more in my system, they seem to have less of a character of their own than the TotalDAC which tended to be a bit 'dark'/less transparant although some people even consider the Curious to be warm sounding. It's all terribly subjective and system dependant so YMMV but there are lots of USB cable shootouts on the Internet if you need some 'inspiration'.
