This thread may end up endless It is certainly an interesting topic as many of us connect our digital front end to the Devialet by AES/EBU. In my case, it's also a Mutec re-clocker but for many years I had my MSB Universal Media Transport connected to that port.
I haven't tried many cables, only Neotech, Oyaide, Acoustic Revive, Kimber KS-2120. Of these four, the second two were clearly better than the first two. The difference between the AR and the Kimber was little. The Kimber was sharper and a touch more detailed but the AR was more involving with its full rich sound. I could easily live with either. I have the AR, the Kimber was borrowed. (I also still own the Oyaide and the Neotech).
Looking forward to what others tried.
