EMM Lab DCC2 & CDSD Better connection?

I don't own a CDSD, I'm still using the old Philips SACD 1000 with my DCC2. After a year of running the combo with the recommended orange ST Glass cables from EMM, I decided to try an AES/EBU cable (an inexpensive one from Cardas that was leant to me).
Well, what do you know! I guess I'll need the little orange cables for SACD but I'll never use them again on Redbook.
Rather than going into detail about how the Cardas sounds better than the glass cable, I'll just say that it does everything thing a little better and everything from the midrange down, a whole lot better.
Maybe my glass cables are defective in some way?
Maybe the Philips reacts differently than the CDSD?
The improvement is way too obvious for others not to have picked up on.
I can't wait to try one of the highly-touted digital cables.
Thanks Alex.

Dgad,
Thank you for your reply. I hope to get a CDSD in very soon. I'll be sure to experiment with the cables.

In my system (using the SACD 1000 and DCC2) the ST Glass cables are incredibly inferior to the Stealth Varidig Sextet AES/EBU cable. My guess is that this will prove to be the case using the CDSD as well.

I'm now using the CDSD with the DCC2 and I have to say that I much prefer the ST Glass connection over the AES/EBU - BNC connection.
The main difference was that the soundstaging and image placement was much more coherent and natural with the ST Glass. The other cables offered a presentation that was somewhat 'confused', by comparison.
I do want to 'warm up' the sound I'm getting from my system now but I will do so with a downstream change.
