Optical or coaxial - which one better for digital

Hi, I in the market for a digital cable to go from my transport to the DAC. My transport gives me the option of using either an optical digital cable or a coaxial digital cable. I would appreciate any feedback/thoughts whether one is better than the other. Any brand recommendations would be appreciated as well.

Thank you.

I was going to ask the exact same question Jeff just did (Toslink or ST?) and if your equipment accepts ST, I'd make the same recommendation he does.

I have not found a coax or AES/EBU data cable that out-performs my Aural Symphonics Optimism V.2 ST cable, between my Wadia T-2000 and my Wadia 27, but that doesn't mean there isn't one ;--)

Forget Toslink, ugh!
