Just researching: is there an advantage to having an external USB sound card, rather than a PCI soundcard?
Also, I'm looking at the M-Audio Delta 66 PCI for the Swans t200a studio monitors (self powered 40W) and Swans Sub200 subwoofer (self powered 100W); the website says that it's compatible with OS X, does that necessarily mean that it's compatible with Apple's DVD player (my main interests are music and DVD playback)?
Before I plunk down mucho coin on a DP 1.42 & 20" cinema display, I need to get my hardware ducks in a row.
