[COLOR="Navy"] 'wychuah' made an interesting post at at M-Audio SuperDAC Group about Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX and Trends Audio UD-10 "It is so far, the only USB audio device that uses an asynchronous USB interface, meaning that the computer is slaved to the Audigy 2 NX's clock like a conventional transport connected via wordclock would be. As for how good this is as a transport... a Chinese forum has compared it against the Squeezebox and it came out on top; but on the other hand they think the UD-10 is ultimately a better transport."

SB Audigy 2 NX was recently discontinued in Europe. Price was nearly 100 Pounds in the UK. They are still for sale in Asia at around the same price. If you are looking for a bargain, some refurbished units with 30-day warranty are being sold for under 30 Pounds plus P&P. I just won for £35 all in :) Seller is pauliansales-ltd or do a search for "Audigy 2 NX" at [URL]http://www.ebay.co.uk[/URL] [/COLOR]
