AES/EBU cables for Emm Labs DCC2 SE

I am curious which AES/EBU cables you have found worthwhile for the EMM Labs DCC2 or another equivalent D to A processor. It would be helpful if you could say a little about the cables you compared and their respective strengths and weaknesses. I really appreciate your time and assistance.

having tried most of the big names in digicables, for the past 3 years I have been very happy with the Stealth Sextet AES/EBU running from my modded CEC TL-1X to Dodson 218 DAC. This is the most neutral, realistic sounding cable I have found and have not considered changing. I think many here would agree on this cable.

Richard,

There is a Kharma Enigma AES/EBU digicable listed for sale at around the same price a Sextet would go for. I have an old Kharma Grand Reference I use from my Wadia i70 iPod transport to Dodson DAC, and I previously used it from my CEC. The GR was and is a superb cable, with a warm, smooth, musical sound, and the Enigma is a step up. I would look into it seriously, as these never come up for sale. They are thick and heavy if that is a consideration.
