I always look for the best sounding / perfect fit to my tastes component, then worry about connections. 

I2s is superior to usb/coax/toslink. The other protocol would be Ethernet if you want to keep the server in another room, which is my preference.

 

Gustard x26 pro. Using I2s from jay's cdt2-mk3 and USB from Innuos ZENith mk3. Happy camper.

Need to mention Denafrips Pontus II - not sure how soundstage compares but very nice happy with mine.
