I brought a Mytek DA for my 002.. Cost almost the same.
There a big difference between the 002 and teh Mytek, although some people I A?B it to could not hear much difference.
I am a big believer that your listening chain has to be really good.
Although I know guys who get a good balance and mix from just computer or boombox speakers with mbox mk1's. It is all in the ears and how well you know your moinitoring enviroment
If you want to ue all the functions on the central station then look at it as extra 2 DA out.
