XDA-3 USB-B Cable advice, fed from NVIDIA SHIELD USB-A 3.0

[AverageNiceGuy]

My apologies if this is a repeat, I thought I saw the answer somewhere, but night shift has caused this to vanish from my mind. 

I am hoping for advice on a good quality cable, to connect EMOTIVA XDA-3 USB-B Cable, being fed from NVIDIA SHIELD USB-A 3.0

I understand it is some sort of bit-checked digital, but some stories seem to imply that there are sound quality differences? 
I'm purchasing some of the best equipment I think I may ever be able to own, and I wish to be careful and thoughtful on the choices. 

My biggest concern is audio quality.

Any well shielded USB cable will do; Emotiva's would work fine.

Thank you 👍

Thanks again for all your help and advice.

Emotiva XDA-3 DAC, and XPA-DR1 Monoblock's received today. I am impressed.

First notice was fuller lows in female vocals. I especially like that sound.
This is a move up from a 20 year old Marantz Receiver 100 watts per channel.

This full sound in female vocals often distorts at louder volume, but not with this new setup.

I understand now what the Marantz “house sound” is. It is a nice sound. This new setup is a cleaner sound.

I’m surprised that I’m not in a rush to reconnect the subwoofer.
Now to work on speaker placement.
