I am looking for a high-quality HDMI cable for I2S from a CD Transport to the DAC...

Understanding from what I've read, it seems that I2S is a great way to go as an interface from the CD transport to the DAC...  I'm looking for a sonically high-quality HDMI cable that anyone is using for this purpose only.  If you can give me an idea as to what HDMI cables you've tried and why you chose the one you're using, that would really help !  My DAC is the Denafrips Terminator+ and I'm considering purchasing the Jay's-Audio CDT2-MK3 transport...  Both units are directly compatible with each other in terms of I2S.  
Thanks !  John

I use Wireworld Chroma (X 2 ) One from streamer to DAC. The other from SACD player to AVR. I like it better than the AQ and Blue Jeans it replaced.
Apollo knock offs have the same geometry.

I’ve tried them but will not vouch.
We have no idea what price range "high quality" is in.

Thanks to all who have responded so-far...  High-quality to me means the best fidelity that you've heard from an HDMI cable on your system, and which ones you've tried in your opinion did it beat.  
Thanks !
John
