I've been occassionally looking for one to make use of the s/pdif on my delta 66. Recently there is a behringer device that seems affordable, but I have no idea as to its quality: Behringer SRC2496 ULTRAMATCH PRO Converter, available for ~$130 US. If anyone has experience with it I would like to hear from you. Above that there is the rme adi-2 for around $700, way beyond what i'm willing to spend considering I could switch to a delta 1010 for $400 or buy a second delta 66 for $190. It seems there must just not be much of a market for lower cost 2 channel converters. Another option, if you only want AD is the Edirol M-10MX, a little mixer with s/pdif out. Something I've wondered, but haven't found an answer for: can any of the usb audio devices with s/pdif io act as standalone converters? i.e. pass their analog ins through their ADC and directly out s/pdif without going through the usb bus to the host and back? -Eric Rz.
