I used this cable to connect a Topping DX7s DAC/headphone amp to my laptop. Works great, good build quality. This immediately fixed a persistent problem I was having when the DAC/amp sounded completely random every day when using the standard cable. For those not interested in audio, Dac/Amp is short for Digital Analog Converter/Amplifier. Just wanted to let everyone know that this cable will work for this application as well.
