It can't be that simple. Don't you have to install special drivers for
windows to avoid re-sampling everything to 48kHz, and make sure windows
doesn't make any system noises while you're listening? Sounds like more
work than installing SS on a healthy computer to me, but I suppose not
all computers are healthy.

I can't get over the fact that USB has power in the cable, but I
suppose firewire does too and it's used by pros. Maybe you can find one
that doesn't run on the USB power.

Good luck.
