Andy, You might want to consider getting an Alesis Masterlink. It has quite acceptable converters and AES I/O (as well as) SPDIF, will do 24/96, plus for about $1000 you get the added bonus of a hard disc recorder & CD burner. There is an interesting PDF comparison chart for a number of converters at: http://images.emusician.com/files/33/DIGITALAUDIOCONVERTERS.pdf Matthew Sohn Audio Preservationist Louis Armstrong House & Archives www.satchmo.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "andy kolovos" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 9:58 AM Subject: [ARSCLIST] External A/D converter with AES/EBU output > Folks, > > Since we're on a product-suggestion line right now, I'm looking for > recommendations for an external 24/96 A/D converter with AES/EBU output. > Not interested in USB. > > Price range is $200-$2,000 or so, but leaning toward the middle of that > range.
