the duet is sexed up =D, and yeah, like another user said, the duet is made for producers on the mac side with the apple core audio / logic studio stuff.

Just got mine, hooked it up and plugged my RS2s straight in. Aware they're not ideal for the application.

Very first impression, big difference from the Mac's headphone out. Played the first few passages of Arcade Fire's "Intervention" a couple of times A/B on both and there's way more body to the pipe organ intro on the Duet and much better separation of the guitar from the background when that kicks in.

Can't wait to hear this with an external tube amp.

The Duet is impossible to make as Windows compatible, which may not because of Firewire bus-power ability as there have 6 pins PC connector out there, is it using the Core Audio technology in OSX, that is no that thing in XP.

Something interesting in Wiki about the core audio:

"Oddly enough, Microsoft Windows Vista also includes a low-level audio API which Microsoft dubs the 'Core Audio' API."
