which output from SONOS to outboard DAC?

I've decided to get an outboard DAC to use with my SONOS ZP90. Generally, do folks find the Digital Coax out, or the TOSlink out to be the better way to connect a ZP90 to a DAC?

Thank you!

I'm running Sonos--->Genesis Digital Lens--->AN 3.1X Signiture.

The difference of adding the Lens was a major improvement. I suspect that reclocking the Sonos internaly would be as well, but the Lens was less money than the mod, and allows me now to run several digital sources into the same DAC.
