A better USB cable may not help a printer, but it can really improve an audio system. When a printer receives a file through USB, its error correction fills in any missing information by having the computer resend the file until it is complete. However, music signals are continuous streams of data that have only one chance to get through a USB cable. Any missing portions of the music signal cannot be replaced, which is why USB audio cables that preserve more information can dramatically improve sound quality.
The highest fidelity is achieved with a USB cable that preserves the original square shape of digital audio waveforms. Cables tend to round off those square waves, interfering with the timing of the processor and signal, creating errors known as jitter. Wireworld USB audio cables utilize unique new designs that minimize jitter by providing squarer waveforms than the standard design used by others. Providing the squarest waveforms at each price level, they make great improvements in tone quality, clarity, image focus, smoothness and dynamic range.
