That's correct. I was mistaken, but you was mistaken too ;). Please,
lets forget about this "battle".

IMO it's more important how we can use Linux with what interfaces ever,
to get the best quality regarding to the sound, at less costs.

I need 48 KHz with the best bit rate I can get. I don't like less than
48 KHz and I'm unable to hear that > 48 KHz does improve something,
excepted of my 2 TerraTec cards, for them 96 KHz does sound better,
might be a converter issue.

Ralf
