Hi Jens,
Not that it should matter to me, but what need do you have that
requires 192khz playback capability? Can you play DVD audio on a mac?
I'd prefer to see SACD support on the Mac before DVD audio, in any
case.
I too am suspect of USB, but that's probably from the old USB days.
I've never had any problems running audio over it, granted I don't use
over 44.1khz audio.
MOTU has a few firewire devices (www.motu.org), though they are
probably more than you're looking for. Also the Quata-fire device at
www.audiomidi.com might be ok for you, but not sure if it does
playback. You could probably find many things with a google search.

Hi all,
I'd like to get a 192kHz playback frequency on my Mac, in place of the
silly 44.1kHz that ships with the computer as default.
I'm not a musician; just a developer like all of you. ;)
I've been looking at LynxTwo, it looks excellent, but my pockets are
empty, so I kept looking (still dreaming about the Lynx...)
I also found Terratec's cards, but it seems the only Mac support they
have (currently), is the USB card that supports 96kHz. I don't like
connecting real-time devices over things like USB, as a
datastream-'spike' would interrupt too much for me; I like when things
are perfect and won't be dragged down by accidents or random events.
;)
-So does anyone know about a 192kHz PCI-sound card (FireWire would be
OK, though, just not USB; I don't trust this thing) ?
If I should write a driver for the Terratec (Aurora Universe 7.1)
card, would this be virtually impossible without any prior knowledge
of writing device drivers?
[I believe that those, who already wrote drivers for their own cards
wouldn't like to answer that question, heh, but then recommend me your
own cards!]
Love,
Jens
