Applications:

The amazing cabling R&D gurus at Ogden, Utah's Kimber Kable have addressed the audiophile's USB digital signal dilemma; how do we get acoustically correct audio performance from a computer digital USB connection without tonal harshness, timbral glare or signal transmission drop-outs? Ray Kimber's proprietary (highly) upgraded USB cabling solves that issue and features 6.1% silver-plated signal conductors with the largest gauge possible under USB specifications for the signal & power conductors. A nitrogen-infused polyethylene signal conductor diaelectric with ferrite noise-reduction beads further ensures pure digital signal conductivity and electrical integrity and minimizes data stream interference from internal data packet interruptions or extraneous induced electrical noise. We hear just a more natural, tightly-focused and 'open' sound with the Kimber Mini-BUS compared to a basic USB cable. Well worth it for any computer audio fan or computer-based listener using a HeadRoom DAC.

Kimber Kable Mini-BUS USB interconnect cabling is terminated with a Type-A ('host') plug on one end and a 'mini-B' type connector on the other for use with our HeadRoom amplifier's DAC's USB inputs and is available in various lengths; select yours from the drop down menu above. The Kimber Mini-BUS USB cable is terminated with an Type-'A' connector to a standard-size 'B'-type plug on the other end.

Available in 5 different cable lengths (prices will vary by length). Please remember to choose the Kimber USB cable length perfect for you!

A surprisingly noticeable upgrade
Posted by violeta88 from Medical Lake, WA on 2011-02-16

Recommend Product: Yes
Pros: Good Value, High Build and Sound Quality
Cons: Not available in Micro-B form (I needed an adapter for my interface)

This cable has made a surprisingly noticeable difference vs. the generic cable that came with my Apogee ONE recording interface, though I did need an adaptor for this cable to plug into the Apogee, as the Apogee has a Micro-B USB connection instead of a Mini-B going into the unit. Luckily I knew this before I purchased the Kimber Mini Bus cable, and I ordered a cheap adaptor plug, which works fine. I notice less haze and more focus in the sound that I am getting from the Apogee when using the Kimber Mini BUS usb cable vs. when I am using the generic cable that came with the Apogee. Additionally, I tried the cable with my cheaper USB DAC's that are in some of my portable headphone amps, and I noticed a similar difference vs. the stock cables that came with those units as well. The Kimber Mini BUS seems very well built, and should last me a very long time. Highly Recommended for those who wish to get the most out of their USB DAC.
