The Delta USB cable by Shunyata Research is their entry-level USB offering featuring silver-plated copper braided shields to withstand RFI and EMI as well as their proprietary ArNi® silver-plated OF copper conductors. All Shunyata Research cables undergo their Kinetic Phase Inversion which means that their cables do not require lengthy burn-ins- they are ready to perform to reference level straight out of the box.

Shunyata Research Delta USB Type A to USB Type B Cable - 1.5m

 

The Delta USB cable by Shunyata Research is their entry-level USB offering featuring silver-plated copper braided shields to withstand RFI and EMI as well as their proprietary ArNi® silver-plated OF copper conductors. All Shunyata Research cables undergo their Kinetic Phase Inversion which means that their cables do not require lengthy burn-ins- they are ready to perform to reference level straight out of the box.

 

What Shunyata Research say

 

 

There are many problems with off-the-shelf USB cables including poor quality conductors and dielectrics and insufficient shielding. Conventional cables induce high amounts of signal jitter and phase noise degrading sonic performance.

The Delta USB cabling is an exclusive Shunyata Research product that was designed to achieve reference level performance but at a very reasonable price point. ArNi® silver conductors and fluorocarbon dielectrics and PMZ construction achieves low levels of jitter and phase noise measurements. Silver-plated copper braided shields protect the delicate signals from external RFI/EMI.

PMZ - Shunyata Research digital cables are produced using a ‌Precision Matched Impedance cable geometry. This means that tolerances of the conductor surface, dielectric extrusion, and the precision of the braided shield are held to minute variances. To achieve these tight tolerances, the extrusion and braiding machines must be run at one-quarter speed during the manufacturing process. The result is better performance through a reduction of cable-induced signal jitter.

https://shunyata.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/ArNi-1.jpg ArNi® wire was designed by Shunyata Research to be the finest quality wire available. It begins with the highest purity of copper and silver metals available, including Ohno (single crystal), PCOCC silver and OFE C0101 conductors. Fluorocarbon dielectrics, usually only found in aerospace applications that have exceptional electrical characteristics including extremely low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength and superb heat resistance.When used in digital wiring it significantly reduces transient energy storage and release which affects phase noise performance.
SR-USB — There are very few great quality USB connectors so we created our own. It features an easy to grip, large diameter head-shell that accepts large gauge wiring. It has an exceptional strain-relief system that ensures longterm reliability even with heavy usage. The contacts are made from high conductivity gold-plated copper assuring minimal signal junction impedance.
Fluorocarbon dielectrics are usually only found in wire used in the aerospace industry, satellites and only the most expensive audiophile cabling. It has special electrical characteristics; very low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength and exceptional heat resistance. When used in power cables is reduces the perception of dynamic compression and reduces blur and slur of transients.

 

Kinetic Phase Inversion Processing was developed by Caelin Gabriel after years of research into the underlying causes of various effects such as burn-in, wire directionality and the effects of cryogenic treatment. He discovered that there was an underlying core principle that burn-in and cryogenics only partially addressed. Once the governing principle was understood it became possible to create a processor that reduces the need for long burn-in periods and eliminates the effects of cryogenic treatment. Four-days of continuous KPIP™ processing dramatically reduces the sonic ups and downs associated with burn-in, delivering a relaxed and natural presentation.

For the build quality, Shunyata won't let you disappointed. Let's move to the sound. This cable is trying to give all the things accurately, not to mention that it provides a clear and wide soundstage and also remains dynamic that, could let you feel the "music". As said, it transfers all the things accurately; it provides a very good balance with treble, mid-range and bass; not going to over boost any parts of it, just trying to give you what you should have. It isn't easy to describe how great it sounds in words, as I'm not a professional at writing articles. But if you want to improve all the way, you should consider this cable seriously. Thanks to Mark recommended this cable to me; otherwise, I would not meet my first Shunyata cable!
