I found these two and couldn't decide among them: http://www.nextwarehouse.com/item/?227223 http://www.nextwarehouse.com/item/?294904 Both around $90 after shipping and tax, which is a non-trivial amount of money for me.

I suppose I could try it and then RMA it back if it doesn't work. - -ken -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGO7xze8HF+6xeOIcRAoPZAJ9S2e7sPSVJtVU9n7T+9Ci3P1JjlACgqbF8 G2Zx8JfxuEYfP7ZATXWfEa4= =Ausn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
