Thanks for the suggestions! I found a USB Cable Shootout on Audiostream that included the Audioquest Diamond and Wireworld Platinum. I think I am leaning more towards the Audioquest because "The Audioquest Diamond’s greatest sonic attribute is its extreme smoothness in the midrange and high end that at the same time, is detailed and very revealing" (
http://www.audiostream.com/content/usb-cable-shootout). It sounds like the description of a good analog (turntable) setup, which I tend to like (I have the Clearaudio Concept turntable and Audio Research PH6 phonostage).
On the other hand the Wireworld is "the ‘fastest' sounding of the three cables reviewed, and offers outstanding definition and resolution" and "is one revealing cable that will allow one to hear all the detail present on a recording." This worries me because I have a lot of mediocre albums, and this description makes me think they might become fatiguing.
The BDA-2 is already a very smooth sounding DAC. Will the Audioquest Diamond make it too smooth and unexciting/boring?
Here's my system if it helps:
Desktop computer running JRiver 19 with Fidelizer 5.0 ---> Wywires USB Silver Series 1.5m ---> BDA-2 ---> Wireworld Gold Eclipse 7 interconnect ---> Octave V70SE tube integrated amp ---> Transparent Musicwave Super speaker cables ---> Dynaudio Contour S3.4 speakers.
