I have several usb cables. One cable is from a computer mouse and the other is from a usb extension cord.
Can these cables be an acceptable replacement for audio cable?

What inexpensive cable options would you recommend for a replacement?

      Is it 4? 🤔 It’s been forever since I’ve opened one up and could have sworn it was 3 because I remember the Xbox controller had 4, but one of them wasn’t needed to slap a USB connector on it and use it with the PC. Maybe it had 5…

        I don’t know about the XBox controllers, but USB 1 & 2 use four conductors: Vcc (+5V), Ground, D+, and D-.

        The OG Xbox has five wires for the controller, I think the fifth was for like a light gun sorta thing. USB is four wires minimum, more for USB 3+.
