Hi Martin, thanks for your reply. I've looked at the AMEK before, and it's great, except one major design flaw: it's got a built-in fan! While this isn't a problem in a control room/live room situation, it is here, where I do a lot of work on my own. Also, I'm sure that the Focusrite DAC is pretty much on a par with the 'smaller' Apogees. If I was to buy an Apogee converter in the long run, it would have to be the PSX 100 (or whatever it's called) if I can't stretch to the big'un (for simultaneous top-notch monitoring and recording).
