Curious if anyone has experience with the Matrix Audio brand usb cable? Competitively priced but very little out there on it. Not looking for general opinions on the merits of whether all usb's are the same - I'll preemptively set the over/under at 2.5 responses before someone throws out the obligatory "it's 1's and 0's, as long as the data gets there every cable is the same"....and I'll take the under.

1. As short as possible - unlike SPDIF USB has no reflection issue
2. Buy one that's within spec
3. If your DAC is $5k+ find a cable that separates out the 5V line as a separate cable or separately shielded.
