Hey, all, I'm thinking about buying a Roku so that we can watch programs
streamed from our Windows 7 PC to our TV. Anyone have any ideas about this?
Is there something better? We're mostly interested in things like dvd's that
our PC canplay but our dvd player can't, (okay, that's not really
hi list I have two questions about sound cards.
the first question is what is a good sound card for the PC, I am thinking about
getting studio play list and I am looking for a good sound card.
my second question is, I mentioned above that I am getting studio play list and
I am wondering if I
The coolest USB sound card that I've seen is the Sound Devices
USB Pre2. I know they call it an audio inter-face, but to me that's just
another fancy shmancy word for a a pro sound card. It's $650 though. Well
worth it in my openion but I know some people don't want to spend a lot no
mater what.
Hi.
I use Station Playlist on a laptop with no problem. It works fine.
As for a USB sound card, I'm happy with the Startech card I got from my
local computer store. If I remember correctly it cost me only $25. It
sounds quite good to me over my Bose Acoustic Wave.
Have a good day.

The creative x-fi series will be good for ither desk top or laptop. They do
have an external card that can be used on ither type of computer system.

I think the best thing to do is just encode some CD's of older recordings at
different bit rates. Then have someone give you a blind test to find out if
you hear the difference, and how much.

yeah that's the one I have, I did a conversion project of about 200
records over the summer for an audio archive and that card, the sb x-fi
5.1 pro external usb card, worked fantastically. I'm curious about this
other 650 dollar card though, really? 650 dollars? That seems rather
outlandish,
This one's pretty cool too from what I've heard. I've never used one, I
don't have one, but from what I've read on Dell's page on them since they
cell them, it sounds pretty cool for a consumer card.

You're welcome, It really is cool. Go to Blind cool tech.com and listen to
Neal Ewer's pod cast of the Sound Devices 744-T recorder in the 2005

Rode NT1-A mike. It's the second recorder he uses. This wil show you what it
Keep in mind that you don't know the history of anything you get free from the
web. For example, if you find a site with
higher bit rates, you don't know if there wasn't a point where it existed at a
lower bit rate. You can't really get sound
back that was once lost. When you convert
I know, I kind of thought the same thing. What $650? Are they insaine? But
then I went on to read that the Mike Preamps are thoughs of the 744-T
recorder which is $4000. So, I imagin that everything else sounds just as
good. Like I said, go to www.blindcooltech.com and listen to Neal Ewers's

There's a big difference between consumer and pro cards. It depends on what
you need. The Sound Devices stuff is made for professional recording, and it
does the job well, but it may be overkill for most people.

Yeah, I guess. I was just putting it out there. There are some things that
may be over kill for me too in the end, but I love sound Devices stuff, and
so I figured, that when I can, I'll get it, and therefore have the coolest
audio ever, and I have these other things handy should I need them since
