Viard Audio Design Silver HD 12
High fidelity USB cable from the Silver HD range by Viard Audio, designed to enhance the sound quality of digital links between source and DAC.
Description
The Silver HD 12 is a USB link cable designed by Viard Audio Design for digital audio systems equipped with a high fidelity converter (DAC). It belongs to the manufacturer's Silver HD range, dedicated to carefully crafted audio links intended for demanding music listening.
Its design is based on specific work on the characteristic impedance of the USB line, as well as a physical separation of the data and power lines, each benefiting from dedicated shielding. This approach aims to limit the disturbances that can affect the transmission of the digital signal between the source and the DAC, with the goal of a sound rendering described by the manufacturer as more analogue, richer in texture and depth than that obtained with a standard USB cable.
The Silver HD 12 retains the characteristics typical of the Silver HD series: great mechanical flexibility making it easier to install, including in configurations where space behind the equipment is limited, as well as a carefully finished, luxurious appearance.
This cable is aimed at users of digital hi-fi systems looking to optimise the link between a computer, a music server or any digital source and a high fidelity DAC. It is particularly suited to listeners already equipped with a system capable of revealing the nuances brought by a carefully designed USB link.

What to check before buying used
With this type of cable, attention should be paid to the USB connectors: a loose sleeve, an oxidised contact or a plug that no longer clips firmly into place indicates an overly handled example. The sheath also deserves close inspection near the end fittings, an area where flexible cables undergo the most repeated bending stress. Finally, it is worth checking that the shielding separating the data and power lines has not been weakened by tight folding during storage.
