Seems to address a non existent problem - who uses untouched usb power from a laptop to power an external audio dac anyway?!!
Love their name, Truth in Systems LLC. Good luck on no prior art.
untwisted multistrand
I'm wondering if not twisting the strands makes it sound better because the electrons don't get dizzy from going round and round.

Didn't Philips produce a range of large styrofoam speakers in the late '70s ?

I remember once having a cassette player that was built into a small briefcase, when you opened the case the lid contained a large Styrofoam speaker. I don't know who made them but it would have been around the mid 70s.

At least they (sort of) describe what it does technically without major BS. Appears to be a USB adapter that instead supplies power to the client from a different power source than the host supplies.
Too bad it doesn't put optoisolators on the data lines and break ground entirely (not just the shield) to avoid the ground loop noise that tends to happen when you connect a USB DAC from a line-powered computer to a sound system. That used to plague me when I was supplying test signals from a computerized system, sometimes had to use a laptop on battery power to get the noise down to reasonable levels.

Everything that is not highly magnetic by design can be seen in retrospect as being either fuzzy or grainy. Long live the new king!
You have to love it, especially JA's appeal to authority. DO knows his stuff because he is what he is.
I thought that might make you smile
Scary though, all my kids were born after 1991 and they were still seeing if witches float?

I missed JA going to Hawksford, this stuff will never go away. It's the shite magnet effect.
