AES Cables: Kubala, Stealth, PAD, etc..experiences

For use between transport and DAC, which AES cables do people prefer and why? I've heard great things about people's experiences who moved to Stealth, Kubala (have a new ELATION AES), PAD, Synergistic, Harmonic Tech, etc...and would like to collect as much feedback as possible as I evaluate potential 'next moves'....thanks!

Do you guys know which version of the sextet is considerd "better", the original xhadow connectors or the newer ones?

Or is the difference negligible?

I've owned the Marigo Apparition, Kubala Sosna Emotion, Ilumminati, a few others. I had a friend's PAD in my system for a shootout. I now have a HiDiamond Digital Carbon.

The order I'd put them in, from least liked to best, in my system:

Kimber, PAD, Kubala, Marigo. I kept the Marigo in my system for a few years. Great cable in every way. I recently found the HiDiamond and it's what will stay in my system, you can see my opinion on that cable in other threads.

Have always wanted to try the Varidig Sextet.
