Re: OK, how about the 0404 USB??

I bought one Friday, and the sound is amazing. The AKM4396 and USB is very nice.

However, I may return it since on 1.8gz Pentium M it takes over 40-50% of CPU to do 44.1, and spikes the processor to upsample to 88.2.

I have not given up since the sound quality is strikingly good. Perhaps a driver update for the USB port on the laptop, or some other tweak will work. At this time though, it is a CPU hog on my system.
