Sounds like the worst > possible surface treatment, BTW. Dont get distracted by some marketing bullets written by misguided product marketeting/managers. Glass toslinks have surely less jitter. Electrical cables I find are just 'hit and miss' when their impedence matches the output/input impedence of your equipment. In pro business, everything is terminated by a 75ohm pulse transformer and a 75ohm cable terminated with BNC does a perfect job. Only in the consumer fields we are burdened with RCAs, questionable terminations of unknown impedences. I think this is the main reason for jitter varying with different cables (but marketed as superior with high prices). Todd at audioasylum liked the Sound Professionals, since I found many of his reviews/ideas match mine, I bought that cable and it is definitely an improvement. If you have a Transporter and a DAC or equipment with BNC one can use any 75ohm cable with BNCs. No need for 'audiophile' digital cables.
