How would you guys go from guitar>monster cable>Kemper>DIGI192HD>DAW? SPDIF, XLR, 1\4"? Where’s the best tonal quality? I could also go guitar>monster cable>Kemper>MackieD8B>DIGI192HD>DAW

If you don't have any clock dependencies, I would use SPDIF, but this will require using the Kemper as the master @ 44.1 kHZ. If you have plug-ins or other hardware that needs a different rate, then I would use XLR. The main difference between mono 1/4" and XLR is that the XLR is balanced, which makes it less susceptible to interference. Might not be an issue depending on your environment and cable lengths, but I always say better safe than sorry.

Yeah, and XLR's signal is 2x stronger as well
But not necessarily a second choice to go unbalanced, as Robert wrote it depends on your environment.
