I own both a RME FF400 and 800. I do use their analogue line inputs for recording on PC. I use 192 kHz only. The recordings of the 800 sound better. As always, it is difficult to explain, perhaps it is best to describe the 800 as smoother and more detailed while not loosing openness and drive. In my opinion, the price difference between both devices is so small, that I would go for the 800 if sound quality is important. I need the 400 for playback while travelling, and record with my 800 exclusively.

Cheers, Klaus
Thanks for this Klaus, I'm looking at both at the moment and leaning towards the 800 but I'm a little fearful of totalmix, looks complicated to me. <- n00b
