Best digital cable to audition?

Hi everyone. I am looking to audition some of the best digital cables out there and would like some recommendations. I've heard Transparent and thought very highly of it. Does anyone have other recommendations?

My current gear is the following...
Ayre V-3 amp
Krell Showcase Pre/Pro
Vandersteen 2Ce Signatures and VCC-1 Center Channel
Cardas Golden Cross I/C and Digital Lightning 15
Alpha Core MI 2 Speaker Cable

How about cheaper AES/EBU cables: like Cardas, Nordost Moonglo, etc. These are under $300. Any suggestions in this price range?

I just want to thank Rja for re-opening the #1 audiophile can of worms. I am an engineer, but I turn off that side of my brain when it comes to comparing cables. No matter how many very talented and experienced electronic experts try to explain that bits-are-bits or wire-is-wire, every digital cable sounds different. If many people want to trust their logic over their ears, that is their perogative. But I bought my equipment to please my ears.
