Help me pick a digital cable

What is a good digital cable for about $150 USD (max 200).

I am looking for a neutral cable that is very open sounding.

I will need RCA connections and will go between my Parasound (CEC) 2000 belt driven transport and my Wadia DAC.

Also what is people experience with 1m vrs 1.5 meter lengths. I read the article written by Steve at Empirical audio. Has anyone compared 1m to 1.5?

Cheers,
Nick

I dont know enough to comment on a brand, but I do know that a solid cable -vs- a braided one just sounds better

HEY Nick,
Try Usedcables.com, they usually send a few to swap and audition, then you send back what you dont want. Just tell them what you are using in your rack and they will give you their best "synergy" recomendations

Hey when I hooked up my solid core digital cable my wife was in the next room and asked what I did, I said nothing, she told me it sounds better!...I then told her I swapped cables and she said she hated to have to tell me that she heard a better sound, as her arguements about upgrades took a bit of a nose dive from that day on lol!
