I always look for the best sounding / perfect fit to my tastes component, then worry about connections.
Gustard X16 is very quiet, sounds great also has I2S .... and fits your budget admirably
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.
