Need suggestions for a USB and digital cable.

I have not tried computer audio but am taking the plunge. I am going to use an HP laptop and I will use Jriver. I got a great price on a Wyred 4 Sound DAC2 and sent it in for the DSDSE upgrade. Now I need to get a USB and a digital cable. I could use some suggestions. I don't really know alot about these cables or how much I will need to spend to get good sound. I need some help! My system is a Rowland Capri preamp, Pass 250.5, and Martin Logan Ascent i speakers.

If you are using the DAC2 DSD SE's USB input you only need a USB cable. No need for a separate digital cable.

It pays to audition but here are some good bets -

Wireworld Platinum
Revelations Audio Lab double head

I am sorry. The digital cable is to run from a Monarchy DIP to the DAC. I am using my dvd player as a transport optical out to the DIP but I need a digital cable to the DAC.

The Revalations Audio Labs comes up often in threads. It is kind of expensive but might be worth it.

I use the Wireworld Starlight for both usb and spdif on my Wyred dac. Wyred recommended the Wireworld cables to use with their equipment. I am extremely satisfied.
