Biggest "Bang for the Buck" in an AES/EBU cable


I will need to purchase an AES/EBU digital cable to connect a Behringer 2496 from a GW Labs DSP. I have little experience with balanced digital cables as I have never had a balanced digital connection in any of my systems. Have performed a search in the Agon archives with little info found. Can anyone suggest an AES/EBU cable with a good Price Vs Performance ratio? I often shop the used market, therefore, used would be an option as well as new. TIA.

The Kimber Orchid has been the most sought after cable for years, I use to own one and it was sweet. Most of the high end critics have agreed this is the best interconnect. 1.5 meter is the recommended length for a digital cable. (Something to do with clocking the signal) If you find a 1.5m Kimber Orchid buy it. I sold my Veridig Cable after securing one a few years back. I had two big systems back then and ended up breaking one down to buy a house. I currently use a cable that cost 3 times as much but would go back to the orchid no problem if I had too.
