Spdif cable


I'm entirely new to the DAC game. I purchased a mint W4S DAC-1 here on A'gon. Using Belden 1694 A cable with Canare "75" ohm male rca's. Total cable cost- for 5 feet, was $19 including shipping. I'm very pleased with the DAC-1 and the cable, and before someone reminds me that the search function is my friend I wonder if I'm loosing anything using a decidedly low cost spdif cable, or us this truly bits is bits?

Any specific spdif cable suggestion for a W4S DAC? You can see my system profile to see what I'm running.

Thanks!

As usual, Kijanki's response is accurate and informative. My brief response is that every digital cable I've used in my system (transport to dac) has affected the sound one way or another - sometimes dramatically.
