$1795 for an a/d converter?  that seems a bit steep... a $350 "flying cow"
(damn i feel stupid calling it that, but that's the model number) will have
to do for now.  on paper, 96kHz is "Better," but c'mon... is it really worth
almost 2 grand?  if we're used to vinyl with all its crackles and pops and
cd's 44.1kHz is "professional," even 48kHz is considered unnecessary...
i don't mean to discourage it or anything, if i had the money to blow on
something like that i would and i'd have a grin on my face knowing that my
sound was as perfect as possible... but we're talking about an a/d converter
for $1795.  i'd get a virus c with that money.  mmm, tasty  :)

yeah - the adat expansion is crucial.

Its a shame it only supports 44khz and 48khz. Are there any <$1500 digital
mixers that do 96khz? Computers equipped with 96khz soundcards like the
Hammerfall or Hammerfall DSP can mix at 96khz.. but then you need a nice
set of analog ins like this nice thing
http://www.rme-audio.com/english/adi/adi96.htm. I suppose for all that
you'd have to pay quite a ton - but the analog ins on the ADI96 are
probably a lot better than the ones on the Behringer. And we're talking
96khz.
