I don't know about M-Audio Delta, but about TerraTec I can say only the best - I have model of the old one, TerraTec 88MT and it works like charm in both Linux and Windows. Have tested on multiple streams, recordings - everything is just fine, quality is noticable better than any average Audigy card. And I guess I will never complain about ALSA ice1712 drivers, because they work just fine and have even improved in last years. Peter.
