We included an adapter free of charge with HDP if you have Toslink cable. See http://www.nuforce.com/hp/products/iconhdp/index.php
Not only that, but it's a nice quality adapter with a metal tip!

Sure, but isn't it better to have a properly terminated cable with the correct connectors at each end?
I liked the USB cable so much I sent Jason a PM asking for instructions to buy it. He said to keep, thanks Jason.
So in closing, I liked the USB cable so much I wanted to buy it. It is going to be feeding the Isabellina DAC in my to arrive Isabella from Red Wine Audio.
USB is digital, and as with all digital it's either a 1 or a 0. There is no loss of quality, unless the sound completely drops out. I can see analog cables mattering, but USB - sounds like snake oil to me. Same as Optical cables.
I love the HDP. I'm just saying.
[size=small]Those seem to be very reasonably priced, but I'm sorry to say that the release of audiophile usb cables and employment of ridiculous audiofool marketing claims have made me lose trust&confidence in your products..[/size]
[size=small]which is a shame as I was really interested in some of your desktop products[/size]
People that think a digital signal is a digital signal make me sad. It's not simply zeroes and ones going through the cable, it's a square wave and it can get corrupted. Ones can become zeroes. USB audio is not block-mode data transfer that is bit perfect as if you're transferring a file between hard drives, it is streaming mode - so cables matter. I like a good USB cable.
