Devialet and USB cables

[Hermanh]

Hi guys, as you may know I tired the iFi Mercury USB cable and it was very disappointing! And I reverted back to my Audioquest Cinnamon usb which is by far better.

Couple of days ago I got my hands on the Audioquest Diamond USB cable and I'm still struggling as I can't really hear any significant improvement vs Cinnamon!

I will dedicate more sessions over the weekend for a more thorough comparison.

For those of you who use the TotalDac USB what do you think of it and what is the price?

Hi there,

I just switched my Audioquest Diamond for the Totaldac USB.
I read all the positive comments but I was a bit skeptical.
However my Diamond cable is 75 cm and a bit on the short side for the position change I planned in my setup.
I noticed that the Totaldac USB cable also came in a 2m version and that Vincent from Totaldac also allows for a two week trial period, so I took the plunge.
The difference  is immediately noticable, more detail, blacker background, more lifelike, more analogue, less sharpness without being flat or dull.
I found all comments I read to be fairly accurate.
The Totaldac is clearly better than the Diamond in my setup and noticably cheaper too (€ 390 for 2m, € 360 for 1m )
