Best digital cable to audition?

Hi everyone. I am looking to audition some of the best digital cables out there and would like some recommendations. I've heard Transparent and thought very highly of it. Does anyone have other recommendations?

My current gear is the following...
Ayre V-3 amp
Krell Showcase Pre/Pro
Vandersteen 2Ce Signatures and VCC-1 Center Channel
Cardas Golden Cross I/C and Digital Lightning 15
Alpha Core MI 2 Speaker Cable

if you can find the original, stiff, illuminati cable, jump on it. it's my favorite coax cable. it might keep me from selling my cal alpha and delta combo. i plan to sell them later this year. for a dac that has tubes, it sounds more like solid state.

I'll contribute another vote of confidence for the Stealth Varidig Sextet. In my system (AN CDT3/DAC 4.1x Balanced Signature) it's the best I've heard by a good margin. Others I've tried include the Nirvana DC-110, the Acoustic Zen MC2, The TG Audio HSR and the Kimber KS-2120. The Stealth is significantly better than all of them.

Ertugrul,
I'm intrigued by the Kondo but they seem difficult to come by. What's the best channel for acquiring one for audition? Do they come in balanced configuration?
