DAC connection: which type gives highest fidelity?


Suppose one wants to connect two digital devices, as in a streamer to an outboard DAC or similar.

Which is the highest fidelity connection?  USB, coaxial, or other?

Thanks!

The best is probably up for debate I2S, AES/EBU, etc. The worst, in my experience, is toslink. Your mileage may vary.
