I've been trying to imagine how you recabled the usb... obviously you had to cut one of the ends off, but how did you manage to connect it back? Is the heatshrink just holding the end on?

LOL! yes with the recabling, my USB now transfers in Terrabyte for FLAC And the soundstage have tripled. Vocals more lush and the lows floored you down

Good question. Obviously I want to fine trim the cable length to my taste so I cut the cable near the small connector. Then painstakingly reconnect cable by cable according to color code - NO SOLDER used at all, just twist em tight and heatshrinked them in place. DONE LOL!

id like to see some pictures of all the loose ends you had to connect. Why no solder?

Too late to show them now because they are tightly sealed
No solder because I believe direct surface to surface contact will preserve the sonics. Solder wire are made of different material and I only use solder to "glue" those surface in. But if I can get a solid contact I will not use solder at all.

Well I can tell that all that u see above are the following:
0.10, 0.8, 0.4 and 0.2 Heatshrinks. If I want them to be big I use nose pliers to stretch them wide
The cables are sleeved with shoelace and handphone lanyard
