Only on the A-Male connected equipment. The B-Male connector is different on USB 3.0 from the B-Male connector for USB 2.0.

Thanks @tedsmith and @mountwashnh1 !
Am I correct the current DS DAC USB input receives a USB 2.0 connector?
Will the DS Mk.II accept as a connector USB 2.0, 3.0, both, or not decided yet?
Will the AirLens accept as a connector USB 2.0, 3.0, both, or not decided yet?
Might I want to consider interconnecting these devices using a high quality RJ45 cable instead of a USB cable?

The DS and DS Mk II use a USB 2.0 connector, that’s plenty of bandwidth for audio and doesn’t require people upgrade to USB 3.0.
If you are asking about using a non-USB cable to connect two USB devices, don’t. Impedances, lengths, wire gage, being out of spec can cause very flaky behavior (working some days and not others, being sensitive to which drivers you are using on your PC…)
Someone else will have to answer about AirLens

It is on par with Shunyata Sigma at a lower price. They do sound different and either one will work great. Big Al called it a bargain and I agree considering its performance!
It’s been a while since I saw Ted’s post, then I realized it was 2 years old. We miss him!
