I'm using a high end USB DAC with my Alix now. I was specifically looking for a PCI sound card, as that is currently the only way to play (without using Windows and a proprietary driver) hi-res material above 24bit/96khz, i.e., I have some material that is 24bit/176.4khz. P.S. One can listen to 24/176.4 over USB but it requires specific drivers for OS and the USB DAC. Although, ALSA should soon have a USB Class 2 Audio (different from USB 2.0) spec in their future release. _______________________________________________ Voyage-linux mailing list [email protected] http://list.voyage.hk/mailman/listinfo/voyage-linux
