The Pure Silver USB conductors are 99.99% pure silver and are twisted to reduce Electromagnetic interference and the connector pin is gold plated. USB bulk transfer protects signal integrity by hardware detection, which can slow down overall USB transmission speed. The Analysis Plus USB cable design provides balanced shields to protect signal integrity and maintain signal quality.

Analysis Plus makes two USB cable models, the Pure Silver and the Purple Plus (which is copper). The Silver has more treble energy and the Purple has more midrange focus. The Silver can sound more detailed but the Purple can soften digital sound that's a bit sharp. Choose the cable that best fits the sonic profile of your DAC.
