Best Cable Option: Streamer to DAC


I was recently told that the inherent limitation of SPDIF connection is PCM 192Hz. I didn't know that. Many new streamers spec 384KHz and I am also told that to achieve higher sample rates (and presumably the full capabilities of the new units) I should use USB rather than SPDIF.  So it made me wonder what actually is the best connection between streamer and DAC:  USB, COAX BNC-SPDIF, AES/EBU or something else?   From a practical standpoint, is there any audible difference from the higher sample rates?  If so, my system should be able to reproduce it.  I'm just looking for help, not trying to start any arguments on here.
