The iBasso CB18L is a 10cm cable with a USB-C plug on one end and a Lightning plug on the other, made from hand-braided, silver-plated 6N single-crystal copper. It suits iPhone and iPad owners with a Lightning port who want to run a USB-C DAC dongle.
Who the iBasso CB18L is for
Lightning iPhone and iPad owners: iBasso designed the CB18L for iPhones and iPads with a Lightning port, connecting them directly to a USB-C DAC dongle.
iBasso dongle users: iBasso recommends it with the Nunchaku, DC07PRO, Macchiato and Macaron and says it also supports other brands' dongles.
Pocket setups: At 10cm (±1cm, plugs included), it keeps an iPhone and a dongle together as one compact stack.
Cable upgraders: Silver-plated 6N (99.9999%) single-crystal copper is hand-braided in an 8-wire layout, with stainless steel shells and 5μ 24K gold-plated USB-C contacts.
Skip it if: your phone or tablet has a USB-C port, or you need a charging cable — it is built for Lightning ports (iBasso lists it as compatible with most Lightning Apple devices) and cannot be used for charging.
