Not exactly STI-500, but I use the W4S DAC2 directly connected balanced to the ST-500.
For cables I am using Pure Note Alluvions XLR from DAC to amp and DH-Labs Q10 from the ST500 to my Martin Logan Sources.
Very detailed and tranparent sound with tons of inner detail. Deep soundstage too. Have not played with power cables yet.
