Suggest a digital cable-

So I'm looking for my "last" digital cable. I am running a digital cable between a Sim Neo 260D transport and a Bricasti M1 DAC. Amp and preamp are Pass (XP15, XP20, X250.8); speakers are Revel Studio 2.

Current digital cables- Creative Concepts Green Hornet, RCA/SPDIF
.                                    Transparent Audio Premium AES/EBU
.                                     Belden 1800F AES/EBU

frankly, all the digital cables sound very good- I just don't want to be leaving anything on the table-  I could go with either SPDIF or AES/EBU but to tell you- after careful listening, the two are, in my set up, essentially indistinguishable.

One of the bigger improvements you can make in a Transport/Dac combo is to break the ground plane between the two components so the transport doesn't pollute the dac

Here's is a cable designed to do just that ... I think this cable will yield more improvement due to isolating the ground noise than spending significantly much more money on a premium exotic type without any  isolation 

And it comes from the Cable Company who give you a free audition
