@SwissBear, I'm not 100% sure since I don't own a Mac but I do know Mac doesn't require a third party driver for USB audio 2.0, Windows does and the control panel is part of the driver. I'm not sure if there are other ways to tweak these buffers in a Mac system and if that would have the same effect.
@David, I like the Curious cables. Before I had the TotalDAC D1 USB cable and though I liked that one very much as well it did have a 'character' it imposed on the sound. It made music sound a bit darker, more relaxed. While I appreciated this earlier I didn't anymore after some time, especially after I installed the Regen (which was replaced by the Intona later. The Mutec replaced the Intona). I started missing the more lively, dynamic sound. The Curious is a more neutral cable in my system, restoring that balance. It's very popular but as always YMMV etc.
