FireWire or optical MADI

Dear Forum,

with my latest disaster of trying to run my Lynx Two-B multichannel soundcard on a PCI slot and attaching the Pico 150TX via linear supply, the whole thing went up in smoke...
-the Lynx is just a bit more power-hungry than the digital section of ESI Juli.

Bummer !

So time it is to "upgrade" the Two-B (internal PCI) to external Lynx Aurora with either Fire-Wire or optical MADI interface.

Does anyone have a slight idea of the advantages between these two interconnects ?

yes, the MADI is optical, so the galvanic insulation is granted, but any other thoughts before I order ?

ideas very welcome !


kind regards
