The RME FF400 doesn't look like the publicity photos in real life. Its not purple. Mine is blue. Also, those shitty looking plastic 'ears' can be removed and it looks much cooler when you take them off.

I'm going to buy a TC Studio Konnekt 48 in the next couple of weeks so I'll drop in a user review when it becomes available over here.

Please tell me you're joking and thats not seriously your reason.

...because if my audio interface doesn't look neat, I'm not inspired.

I know nothing of their quality or driver stability, but they look just fine to me.

The Metric Halo 2882 Mobile I/O has the exact I/O I need.
The 4 Mic pre amps being crucial. Too bad its just a tad out of my price range... $2,299 AUD

Didnt know that 'ears' can be removed. They look damn ugly..

Konnekt 48 looks wicked.. Would def go for it if I had more money..

Do you think rme is the best option in that price range and wont let me dissapointed?

The TCs had hardcore driver problems on initial release. Better check if thats all been sorted out, if you're still considering them.

TC Konnekt is still plagued with driver issues, i would stay away if i were you.

Been using a RME Fireface 400 for a while now, personally i think it 'looks' & SOUNDS great. Never had any driver issues, RME always update the firmware & drivers regularly. It's highly recommended.

Be patient and check Audiomidi.com im not sure if they ship to you but they often have 10% metric halo products. Also they turn up on ebay from time to time and go for relatively cheap. Not to mention some of the best ad/da conversation good preamps and the best drivers for mac.... IMO the metric halo sounds the same if not better than the apoggee ensemble which I demoed in my studio along with the metric halo. I use genelec 8040's and have some sound reiforcement though not the best... But i was able to hear a difference.. Better or worse is really subjective at that point..

I have to make decision betwen RME Fireface 400 and Metric Halo Mobile I/O ULN-2..

Which one should I go for and why? Please note that I'm on windows.. Maybe any other recommendation in that price range?
