Recommendations for a "mid-fi" digital coax cable?


I am looking for a recommendation for a digital coax cable that costs no more than about $150 to connect a Wadia iTransport to a North Star M192 DAC. Does anyone have any good suggestions? I am looking for something that is musical, detailed, but (most importantly) non-fatiguing.

Also, is there any truth to the idea that a longer digital cable (1.5m) sounds better than a shorter length digital cable?

Thanks

Audiogon member Joemazzaglia sells Auricle Audio Design digital IC which meets all your criteria plus being wonderful performer very far above the merely mid-fi level.
I use his 1.0m length in a number of systems.
Personally, have not compared the same digital IC in both 1.0m and 1.5m length as this is a newer idea to me.
I use jitter reducers such as Genesis Digital Lens in my systems, and this may mitigate some of the claimed shorter length "shortcomings."
