Not for sale unfortunately but a recommendation:-
Black Cat Silverstar 75.
I have one and it’s the best I have heard.

GaryIve actually bought one, after considerable research yesterday, but thereby hangs a tale and not sure I'll get it.

You may find a bog standard Belden 1694a with Canare plugs will be hard to beat.

I found Mark Grant digital cable (HDX1? Something like that) to be pretty decent. Only about £30 with any termination you choose.

I've had a load of digital interconnects over the years and the best I've found are Kimber D60. Ultra pure silver conductors, it improves anything you want to connect. Good luck with search

I used to have everything wire wise Kimber even internal Speaker wire & internal Amp wire. But that was well before any digital cables or Silver Interconnects.
At the time there were two Interconnects the 'PSB' [Un Sheilded] & 'KC1' [Sheilded]
Speaker cables were: The Teflon '4TC'/'8TC', The Poly '4PR'/'8PR'/'4VS'/'8VS'
I think you can still buy all these now..

GaryThe guy was incredibly arrogant Friday when I asked to pay Monday having just pulled the trigger on a mhdt dac. Along the lines of not his problem and I had a nerve asking for such a thing. He suggested I would have a long wait unless he got the cash at the weekend. I paid Monday. So we shall see when it arrives.

GaryScammer! Paid by PayPal. Today I messaged him as he cancelled the order. Said I was a scammer and hadn't paid. Sent him screenshots of PayPal transaction. Declared them fake. I asked PayPal to cancel transaction and have blocked PayPal from taking money from the bank which causes me problems as they will need to take money for DAC.. Fucking nightmare. Do. Not buy from seller thebeesfan

You should be fine as long as it was goods and services not friends and family.
