Selling my year old revo, as I'm going for something better. This card has been modified with formidable AD8620 Opamps on all channels, increasing the dynamic range by 3 decibels measured on RMAA benchmarks.
Its a year old, and in excellent condition (well, hardly anything can happen to a sound card).

Here's the link to the manufacturer's site:-

http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/Revolution71-main.html

Some features of the card:-
- top-quality surround sound up to 7.1
- 24-bit/192kHz audio playback on up to 8 channels
- PCM, AC-3 and DTS
- Professional 24-bit/96kHz mic/line recording
- Virtual surround from stereo
- SRS TruSurround XT delivers virtual surround with stereo speakers
- SRS Circle Surround II transforms stereo content into surround
- Game support with Sensaura, EAX, DirectSound and A3D
- Powerful control panel for bass management and other features

A new one costs around 7.5K:-

So, I'm looking for around 6.5K for this (negotiable).

I forgot I had put this here

Nobody interested? This would be very good for your bedroom music/movie system

Hi Zhopudey,

I wonder if you will be so kind as to help me, even though I am not a customer for your sound card

Can you advise me a good 2 channel sound card, with the following characteristics....

1. Its paper specs should be great. ( Low distortion & noise, wide freq response etc )

2. It may sound like crap, no problem

3. Low Price

Any suggestions ?

My aim is to use it as a PC Based Spectrum analyser and oscilloscope, with external software.

Thanks !

I'd read your earlier post about this. IIRC, you needed a card which could go beyond 20Khz. None of the regular consumer or even pro cards that I know of support this. They are all 20-20. If that is ok for you, then you could try out the EMU 0404 -

Quiet expensive here:( It costs just $70 in the US. I have this card as well, and it even sounds amazing, apart from having great specs

THANKS !

An approx price at Lamington Road ?

Your link indicates Rs 6300 by Mail order... also probably an old (higher) price for the EMU 0404 ?

Read on the net .... Absolutely GLOWING tributes to the EMU 0404.

However, a couple of niggles ....

1. No Mic input, so I cant use my PC for voice chats or Skype !

2. Does not support 192K... so cant use for DVD-A playback / recording ... Actually, I have No Idea if ANY audio card will enable me to playback DVD-As on a PC DVD Drive and receive atleast an analog Audio out.... I think it will almost CERTAINLY not permit a digital out ...

Can someone throw light on the above points ?

Thanks

If you want the whole kaboodle, you'll need to go for 1820M

And I think 0404 supports 192k playback. Its just that the DSP engine doesn't support 192k. Not sure about DVD yet. Afaik, only the Creative cards can play DVD-A if you use the supplied player.

Just picked up a M Audio - Delta 1010 LT Sound Card from L Road [Amp Nuts recommendation].

http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/Delta1010LT-main.html

I actually needed a sound card with a xlr balanced out for my active speakers. I sure hope this works !!!!
I now have to try and install it correctly.
Fingers are X-ed.....
