    Sound Blaster Live! 24bit Review

    Seraching about the CS4382 DAC I found this thread. I'm looking for a good DAC, and I happen to own a SB0410, so I'm thinking to give it a try, I have heard good things about this card with hard mods, but I can't find details about the mods. Any help of guidance?   Thanks!

    Great and Simple DAC

    Hi there, I used to own a EMU 0404 USB, sound was great, but it's bulky, drivers are not so good, and I don't use MIDI and all it's extras, just plug-in my headphones and speakers. (Audio Technica ATH-A900 and M-Audio AV-40)   I'm looking for a similar or better quality DAC, preferably...

    EMU Tracker Pre USB 2.0

    Hi there, I just want to know opinions about the new Tracker Pre USB Audio Interface from EMU. From the specs it sounds like a 0202 upgrade, same chips but better quality numbers, I don't know if they will be audible. I currently own the EMU 0404 USB 2.0, but I brought it only for the DAC...

    Speakers Buyer's Guide

    psc001: as you can check at AudioREVIEW.com - Home Audio and Home Theater resource, the speakers are well rated, but it's original price is NOT what the sale website claims.
