What is the best BNC Digital Cable under $4,000?

I'm looking at the Synergistic Research Galileo UEF Digital BNC. As well as the Wave High Fidelity Cable and the High Fidelity Reveal BNC and the Black Cat Tron Ditial Cables, respectively.  What do you consider the best Digital BNC cable under $4K?

One post from Tatyana seemed to get buried but I will pick up on it.

I have found on my C.E.C transport that I much prefer the sound using the AES/EBU over regular coax or BNC connections.

Do not have a hugely expensive AES cable but will likely be trying one out very soon to see if I can discern any further increase in sonics.

Better not let your wife find out that you spent $4K on a cable! Mayhem may ensue!

Ones going against data should offer up the proof.
No one here owes you proof of anything.
I don’t need to listen to expensive data cables to know they can’t result in better stereo separation.
So you not only exempt yourself from providing the proof you demand of others, but you won't even go so far as to listen before rendering your pronouncement? You're a pretty funny guy.
... by all means buy a better cable if it sounds better to you, just don’t go out blindly recommending it to others ...
Actually, if we've listened to the cable, we're not making a blind recommendation at all. It's armchair theorists like you that make the blind recommendations.
I’m unfortunately not well off enough to be able to spend $4K on a digital cable.
Ahhh, there's your bias.

To mrc4u:
Audio Bacon has just published an extensive report on the Chord M Scaler and the sonic differences using several different connecting cables. This should give you valuable information for your question.

David.
Thank you
Some nicely documented information there that should be hard to argue against.
More to discover
