Ok, i pulled it out and re-packaged it for return to the store. Then I
plugged the studio monitors into the on-board sound card (a regular AC97
thing). OMG! The on-board card sounds like crap, by comparison with the
1010! It's flat, harsh, muffled and... um... lifeless, sort of.
I guess the average listener wouldn't perceive the difference (or care
about it) but for critical listening, it's like night and day. I didn't
even had to A/B it with the 1010, it was clear from the beginning.
I'm anxiously waiting for a replacement for my 1010... :-/
