It really is more than the golden mean between the Audioquest entry-level USB and top USB models. I use the Carbon together with an Audioquest Jitter Bug in a Kef LS50 Wireless/laptop combi to download/listen to music via TIDAL Hi-Fi. In my experience, it is a major step forward compared to a standard version.

I've been a true audiophile for decades. Sometimes you can fool yourself, but that's not the case here. I use an iPad and a Mac mini (iTunes and Amarra) as sources and have an iFi audio iDsd nano DAC and Headphone Amplifier (iCan SE). Plus another Grado SR 325e headset with the larger earbuds of the GS 1000e. I had been lazy for years and still used the standard blue USB cable that came with the DAC. I thought it would be possible and a better cable wouldn't make much of a difference. Then I read in what sense it would be possible to improve this digital USB connection. After that I was already convinced that I wanted it. The result was a world of difference on all fronts. I say this with timid but full conviction. Digital silliness gone. Fuller sound. More spacious sound. More transparent sound, either a more direct 'view' of the real musicians and their performance, or actually the real recording. Without a doubt, Audioquest lives up to its story. Often better audio products make more bad recordings clear and listening to them becomes less. In this setting, the standard USB cable was the bottleneck, causing distortion and listening fatigue. Many more recordings that sounded bad at first suddenly become worthwhile. My set is finally playing to its full potential. I am stunned and even dare to say that the price is low for this lifetime improvement.
