Should I use I2S breakout board for USBAudio?

I found USBDevice - USBAudio Class Reference. Should I use I2S breakout board (AIC) for USB audio playback? Or using on board DAC?

It depends on the required audio quality. An i2s breakout board can give you much better sound quality, but if that isn't required you might as well use the on-board DAC. Personally I would probably just start with the onboard DAC, experiment with it and when that works you can always decide to add the I2C DAC.
