After reading someone mentioned using 75ohms BNC termination plugs in Computer Audiophile, i decide to take a try.
I ordered some termination plugs through my local electronic parts stockist, each plug not cost more than a few bucks. Other than the one I used for my 10MHz clock input from Mutec Ref10, I terminate all the rest of 7 BNC connections on Mutec 3+ USB.
After playing music from my hifi setup for 5min, I started to realise the music get slightly richer, the soundstage seems to expand and it is easier to locate the individual players compare to before. The improvement is not day and night, but substantial enough to get noticed.
This tweak does not cost me much and I guess anyone can try without breaking the bank.
Anyway, thanks @Sharone, your post has served a reminder. I have ordered some BNC termination plugs, and when they arrive I will test and report back.
