well, the RME babyface claims +-1dB in the range of 5Hz - 92kHz.
i know that the UA-55 is used by people who have no idea whatsoever
about audio (and are no audiophiles either), but still require the
record sounds in the 50kHz-85kHz range. so i figure that card would be
ok as well (if it did support 192kHz under linux)

sure. that's why i was asking on the list.

why?

i'm afraid not.
hence i am asking.
