Is it possible to replace a damaged audio cable with a non audio cable? (lemy.nl)

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?

I'm confused, what type of audio cable are you trying to to replace? Afaik there is little difference between USB cables other than their version number

Oh yeah you're fine then. If you notice a difference in audio quality maybe try becoming a composer because you definitely have the ear for it.

Just make sure it's the correct USB version (like 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 etc idk how far they go)
