Best affordable digital coax cable for connecting transport to re-clocker?

My Empirical Synchro-mesh is due to arrive today. I bought the Empirical cable to connect the re-clocker to my Aqua La Voce DAC but am wondering about what to use to connect the transport to the S. Mesh. I'd like to spend less than $400. Blue Jeans 1694A has been recommended. How might this compare with, say, Audioquest Carbon ?

You don’t need an expensive cable for the transport to Synchromesh. The critical area is from the reclocker to the DAC and Steve’s cable will minimize reflections and jitter.
The data stream from the transport will be clocked by the Synchromesh, so BJ cable should be fine.
