I use the PYST cables.
+1 - they are perfect for my Magni/Modi stack.

May this Schiit decrapify your USB signal.
Happy new owner of Valhalla. Using my Decco2 as a DAC, great amp for the DT880.
haha...my Mac may need it.
My ASUS definitely does, I will be ordering one next week, hopefully the end of USB drops.
Waiting for their phono stage...
My Asus laptop has a weird problem where my Modi DAC will start playing music too fast (exactly 10% faster) after bringing the laptop out of sleep, IF I had music paused when I put it to sleep. Simple enough to avoid, but I wonder if Wyrd would cure it. This is my second Modi this happens to, so I know it's not defective.
That issue generally occurs when the playback software is decoding the audio at a certain sample rate and then the playback device changes the sample from that sample rate to a higher sample rate. Effectively you have music being decoded at 44.1kHz and played back at 48kHz which is almost exactly 10% faster playback speed. I've had this issue with a firewire sound card and QLab on a Mac when I changed the sample rate, QLab did respond by changing its own sample rate, check to see what you audio settings are when the issue happens.
Unfortunately I don't think it will be a simple fix with Wyrd since it's probably an issue completely with your OS rather than any hardware.

Just ordered the Wyrd. Should be here by end of next week. I was debating the iFi Purifier and the iUSB Power after reading some positive reviews of both. I'm having usb noise issues from my MacBook Pro, so hopefully the Wyrd might work similarly as the Purifier for the same price.
Please post a review when you receive it.
