EMU 1820 worth it?

99.161.120.235

Hi

Have a P4 with Audigy 2, and think longer term will go USB DAC vs sound card, I have the oppty to buy a EMU 1820 (not M) for around $80, and thinking while I search for a DAC will be good for now, and that should be able to sell it later for close to the same.

Any opinions on this card (I know the M version is highly rated). I will be using for 2 channel playback with either Audioengine A5's or Quad 11L's active, whichever sound better.

Thanks

You can buy for $80 something that costs at least $300 new - go for it. - carcass93 18:53:30 01/20/09 ( 0)
