Ethernet v USB

Is there a reason to prefer one over the other? I used to use USB directly from an iMac to an Ayre DX-5 DSD and the sound seemed superb. Now I use Ethernet from a router to an Ayre QX-5 Twenty digital hub and the sound seems superb. Source in either case was/is files delivered from Roon.

It occurred to me I might sell the QX-5 and Ayre Codex/microRendu, buy a second DX-5 DSD, and use USB from the iMac and Mac Mini.
