As always it depends on your gear. Try both side-by-side if you can.

I'm running a coax type spdif cable from my transport to jitter attenuator(it doesn't have bnc or xlr)and the chronos jitter attenuator is also splitting the digital signal into two resaudio quantum dacs in balanced mode,currently i'm using a pair on bnc's cable and was wondering if optical att format will be better,thanks.AL
