Improving USB Audio

Post date: 06-Mar-2012 12:36:12

After testing this & a number of independent people also doing this test, I can confirm that a USB adapter rather than a USB cable sounds best. It seems to match, if not better expensive USB cables although it hasn't been auditioned against very expensive ones yet.

So here's what you need - for my devices - a USB B male to USB A male adapter.

In the USA you will find them here

In the UK you will find them here

You will also need a USB A male to A female adapter to do two things:

- give you extra clearance between PC/laptop & device for the plugging in of other cables

- orient the device the correct way up

You may prefer to get swivel type USB adpaters but these have not yet been tested:
