I've got a new workstation coming and for sound I've ordered this card based soley from info I got from 2CPU.com (the workstation is dual Xeons).

My last workstation has dual P3s and I had nothing but problems from both Creative and Hercules - mainly skipping audio (from the sound card's interrupts being distributed to two seperate CPUs).

So, I'm wondering now (after the fact) if any [H] users have experiences with this card
 
LOL! After 90 views and a dump to page 2, I guess the answer is "no"?
 
I've only heard good things about it, and I had heard it mentioned that plays nice with duallie systems but no personal experience.
No 6 channel analog output of course, but you knew that.

So, NO! ;)
 
I'm just curious what you saw in the Audiophile 2496 that you didn't see in the new and slightly better Revolution 7.1...? Was it the board-mounted RCA connectors?
 
See here I am getting confused again...... how is the Revolution better then the Audiophille?
Please don't even tell me that....that, Cliff I get a kickback from every revo sold Wats-on guy said so......
 
I thought that was the general sentiment at AVS?

I will admit that I haven't heard the Audiophile 2496, but the Revolution 7.1 has a features advantage, and since Cliff was instrumental in the Revo's development, I would assume it got some good treatment.

Sorry, that's why I was asking.
 
No, need to be sorry.
I was just hoping you had some type of USEFULL information to base that assumption on. :)
 
It's cheaper, it supports 192KHz sampling rate playback and it has 7.1 analog output. So that's better in a way I guess.

The only "feature" I desire is to work agreeably in a dual cpu system.

Pft... Brian, I suggest that you read your own sig before you have the audacity to point that finger at anyone else.
 
You should've gotten the FireWire based version...lol

You could always get the RME PAD and do the mod and be living-the-life Uhh...mod
