Hi Paul! Welcome to Devialet Chat by the way!
The best AES/EBU cable that I've heard to date in my own system (and now own) is the Transparent XL. It's not cheap though, retailing at over £3k in the UK. Previously I owned a Chord Sarum Tuned Aray which was excellent too. I'd also recommend trying the Sablon AES/EBU which is a fantastic cable and costs a fraction of the price of the others.
I'd recommend trying to home dem as many as possible.
As an aside I look forward to hearing your impressions of the Auralic Aries.
