$750 :(

I bought mine a few weeks ago for Eur 996,-

I'm really confident with it, althrough I find the main volume knob way too small for my taste. Note that the analogue i/o's are mono, so you "only" have 4 analogue stereo i/o's (8x mono), but I suppose you knew that ;)

I don't know whether you have other hardware or not, but if you work with a computer only, it might be a little overkill :)

I'd only buy it if you plan to buy some more hardware equipement in the near future. What else do you need that inputs for?

I also recommend you to buy a pair of good monitor speakers, since monitors are far more important than a high-end audio interface.

I have an Access Indigo II and Yamaha CS6x together with a pair of Genelec 1030 monitors and I used to have a SBlive soundcard, so I upgraded.

Take a look at the Audiophile or Delta 44: http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do...D=pciinterfaces

Good quality for a far better price, you could save the difference for a pair of monitors or a synth.
