For people connecting their laptop to the BDA-2, which USB cable are you using?

While I do not have a BDA-2, the Totaldac USB Cable/Filter has been unmatched here on the few DAC's I have tried it on. Gives substance and solidity to the soundstage like no other cable. Worked a charm on every DAC I put it on.

About $440 USD. Vincent takes Paypal for this item, and it is worth every penny. Absolutely, worth every penny. Other USB Cables sounded fuzzy in comparison. Including:
AudioQuest Diamond, Revelation, Chord, Jcat are the other ones I have tried.

Although I don't have a BDA-2 and I do not stream from a PC I plan on getting the BDP-2 and most likely BDA-3 for it's DSD capability and for playing the DSD content via USB I'll probably get a 1 meter Siltech Golden Universal II. I might also get a Siltech Golden Ridge II if I don't intend on using USB for anything other than DSD.

The best I have tried is the DH Labs Mirage. While not cheap, it starts at $200, and it shames some comically priced USB cables.
