Thread Starter | Whích RME audio interface should I get? I've got a M-Audio Delta 44 sound card, and would like to upgrade to an audio interface from RME. I know this is a difficult question for anybody to answer, but if I got a RME HDSP 9632, would I notice a significant improvement in the sound quality on audio playback compared to the Delta 44? RME HDSPe AIO or RME ADI-2 are two other options, but both are more expensive than the HDSP 9632. Also, with the ADI-2 I'd need to get a new sound card anyway, because Delta 44 has no digital I/O to communicate with the ADI-2 with. It would be great if I could just get the HDSP 9632 and be happy with that. Then I could save the money compared to getting either an AIO or an ADI-2. Thanks. Best regards, Henrik PS. I prefer PCI or PCIe, not FireWire or USB. Thus no Fireface for me. |

| I'm a former Delta 66 user who recently obtained a 9632. I love it! Seems clearer with more depth, and the drivers so far are very solid and reliable. |

Thread Starter | Thanks! How is the DA conversion of the various RMEs (HDSP 9632, HDSPe AIO and Multiface II) compared to Fireface 800, did any of you do a A/B-test? I'm asking because I had a chance to listen to the FF800 a few weeks ago, and was very impressed. Especially with the way electronic bassdrums sounded. The FF800 has a lot of power and punch. Is this a description you feel you can recognize from listening to your audio interface too? (HDSP 9632 and the others) |
