In Reply to: Re: By the way, the reason why 11 and 12 kHz are NOT a good way to measure IMD ... posted by drwkng on February 1, 2007 at 01:57:49:
and they appear to be significantly better than yours at 96k (3dB lower noise floor, which means the noise level is half that of the lynx, plus lower THD and IMD). The only area where the L22 wins is frequency response (since the 1212M is slightly aggressive in it's low pass filter).This is not surprising, because the 1212M has a number of design advances over the L22 (slightly better DACs, noise insulation from the PCI bus, and better clock). To my ears, this translates to a slightly better sound as well.
The reason the 1212M is cheaper is not because of quality, it's economies of scale. Lynx is a small company, and the L22 uses expensive FPGAs. E-MU on the other hand is using the 10K2, the design cost has been fully amortised through the high volume sales of Creative's consumer cards. E-MU is probably leveraging the production efficiencies of Creative as well.
