I apologize in advance if such a thread exists - I couldn't find one.

How's the curious cable? What did you replace?


The combination of Curious USB + Regen Link and Kimber D-60 Ag cables replaced an AQ Carbon USB and AQ Carbon coax.
 
The AQ cables aren't bad themselves, and it was a lot to spend on cables; but, I was very impressed with the difference the Curious and silver Kimber coax made - especially with high-res audio files.
 
The UpTone Regen + iFi iPower 9v replaced an original iUSBPower + Gemini cable, as well - I am also very impressed with the UpTone Regen.
 
With this last combination, I finally have a playback chain out of my MacBook Retina that competes with the Bryston BDP-1. At this point, I don't think I could distinguish between the two.
