Pangea Audio - USB cable - 24 ga solid silver - 1 Meter
Pangea Audio USB-AG is the USB cable that's designed specifically to deliver high-speed digital audio signals. Its proprietary geometry is optimized for digital audio signal transfer. The USB High Speed 2.0 rating supports up to 480 Mbit/s data transfer rate. USB-AG is an amazing 24-gauge cable boasting the most advanced design on the market and using the most expensive pure, solid silver available for its signal conductors. In our tests, USB-AG sounds smoother and slightly more revealing than Pangea Audio's USB-PC cable, and that's no small feat considering the great performance of USB-PC. Most USB cables are 28-gauge or even 30-gauge. USB-AG has a large 24-gauge AWG conductors for superior signal transfer. (The smaller the gauge-number, the larger the diameter.) Thanks to its superior design and metallurgy, you'll be able to clearlyhear a difference between USB-AG and lesser cables. In our listening tests we heard an immediately noticeable improvement even when using USB-AG with inexpensive DACs. The improvement with audiophile-quality DACs and other digital audio devices can be substantial! Pangea Audio's USB-AG doesn't let airborne noise compromise performance. The conductors are precision-twisted for superior noise rejection and triple-shielded for optimized noise isolation. The 24K gold-plated contacts offer superior electrical contact. Special two-shot molded connector bodies protect vital digital connections for stable signal transfer and long life.
