Please recommend a coax SPDIF cable similar to the Nordost Tyr 2


Hi,
I was hoping someone could recommend a 75 ohm Coaxial digital cable for me.  Currently using a Nordost entry level purple flare? coax cable.   My system is a PS Audio PST transport to a DIY PCM1702 based DAC. Only has a coax input.   I wont be able to afford a new DAC (PS Audio Direct stream II or Holo May) to 
go I2S/HDMI anytime soon.    I'm pretty happy with the digital front end as the PST transformed it. I've probably have 2000 CD's and stopped playing them for awhile when I got my SOTA COSMOS.  I also probably 2000 or so lp's and only 60 or so SACD's (that I can play on my Oppo 205 if wanted)...so a new DAC or SACD's are 
pretty low on the priority list.  Honestly my jaw drops every time I play a lp (Sota Cosmos>>Graham 2.2>> Micro Benz Ruby Z>>Nordost Tyr phono cable>>Pass Labs XONO) 

I don't think that I've ever had this issue at all before but my system may tend toward the bright side of life.... but never ever bothered me playing lps or cds.

The rest of my system is a DIY Nelson Pass "Bride of Zen" preamp, Pass Labs Amp, Dynaudio Special 25 speakers.  Interconnects and speaker cables are all Analysis Plus Silver Apex. I'm currently listening(trying to figure out if I want the Tyr) to nothing but cd's as I replaced the cheap coax with a Nordost Tyr 2 coax cable between my DAC and PST transport.  I love the combo now on alot of cd's as the top end is really great but I find it slightly harsh or too analytical on some cds.  Others its just beautiful.  

I was hoping that someone could recommend a similar coax cable to the Tyr 2 that would be gorgeous on the top end, detail, and sound stage but would be less grating (on some recordings) for the lack of a better word.
Thanks
Tom

I second the Acoustic Zen cables, I am using the Absolute 75 SPDIF Digital Cable with good results. 
 

Unsolicited opinion, I recently tried some of the Analysis Plus interconnects and found them to be on the thin sounding side, throw some silver on there and they might get bright too. I switched to WireWorld Eclipse 8, and was rewarded with a much richer sound. 

Just bite the bullet and buy the Jorma digital cable and be done with all this.  It is above the other price points but below the other expensive digital cables.  We have tried so many, heard so many, this is what we have settled on in our listening room.

Happy Listening.

Whichever brand you choose stick with copper and avoid silver or silver coated.This will go a long way towards relieving the harshness. My personal preference for whatever it's worth is I like solid silver on the source, then some copper and some silver between other components as you move down the line. WireWorld, Acoustic Zen,Analysis Plus (copper) are all good choices for you.

Why don’t you call usedcable and audition ? The only way to know if it will match your system? All the cables recommended are good, you like the one that will match your system.

Thanks for all the advice and recommendations!! Please provide more : )

Ive spent most every night listening to all sorts of cd’s for a few hours.

All in all I really love the Tyr 2. Its not fatiguing at all and had a beautiful top end and soundstage so it may be the one I buy. I had concerns with what I would call harshness but its probably only certain cd’s that reveal the mastering. I'm also  probably not used the gobs of detail. I did audition this Tyr 2 from the Cable Company and I have four more cables coming this week so it will get interesting.
