An objective test and review of three affordable USB cables for audio: the Supra, Oyaide Neo d+ and Wireworld Chroma 8 cables. The biggest question here of course is: "Do USB cables make a difference?" Take a look at the tests and decide for yourself and/or share your thoughts in the comments. Most of these cables aren't available on Amazon it seems, but here's a link to the Oyaide Neo d+ (amzn.to/380OPB0) and AudioQuest Diamond (amzn.to/2Pkusbn)
