Terratec EWX 24/96 / envy24

May it be :-) the switch from 16/44.1 to 24/96 is very well audible
anyway :-). I guess, for the realworld-usage of this card signal/noise
ratio is of greater importance then the question, if the DAC could
compute even greater resolution then the one I hear.

So having the very same DAC in a breakoutbox shielded from Fanmotors and
 Powersupplies could increase the quality of the recordings...
