Anyone try those Onkyo USB audio things?

They look pretty interesting, especially from the perspective of a powerbook user. Has anyone seen these in action?



Thanks

    I can't imagine that there's a lot of confusion here. They're the devices where USB is the input, and it has some sort of tasty DAC inside it, so analog is the output. As advertising would suggest, the analog (or perhaps digital) electronics inside make good sound.



    If you don't know what it is, then you haven't used one, and are of no help with this question. If you're curious, go to Onkyo's page and find it.

    I was interested in them, but i've had such a horrible time with USB audio input in OS X that i think any external sound processing device i buy from now on will be FireWire.
