OK this puts the ID40 card into a mystical place I'd like to know more about.

Out comes the cynical hat (excuse me for a moment...). It's �1000. Looking at things like AC12, MC200 maybe, the ID40 may be about �200 worth of kit. I imagine it re-clocks. What else does it do that �300 elsewhere doesn't do?

The ear evidence is there, Dolf has a good pair. No doubt about that.

What am I missing? "pulling the sound" is something an Asynchronous USB does. Can we have it in layman's terms, no snakeoil.

Cheers Tintin
