Streamer output options


In my younger days, I was told so often that spdif was better than usb that it became doctrine.  I'm in the market for a 2k$ish streamer and I see many higher end streamers with usb outputs that pass far higher res data than the spdif 192/24 does. My DAC takes either, but not i2s. Are the new implementations of usb now better than spdif?

@mclinnguy Thank you for the Laugh of the Day. Although I'm sure there are many here who don't get the joke. 🙄

It's completely DAC dependent IMHO! Some DAC's like my Holo Audio May KTE have done an excellent job of implementing the USB and it has double galvanic isolation. USB has come a long way and can sound excellent!
