Ok, folks. Another dilemma.

We have a DAC-1, back end of the audio spectrum(out from DAW). Want 2 kno what is the difference or which is better sonically between these 2:

Apogee Rosetta 200 vs Benchmark DAC-1

We are thinkin of getting the other end but reluctant on movin out the DAC-1, though there isn't a ADC to come 'til who knows when. So my thinking of alternative would b 2 get the Apogee 200.

Want 2 kno if any1 heard/compared these 2 machines?

Just to let everyone know, the ADC1 will be shipping in the middle of July, so if you can wait another month you can finally have one. All the engineering bugs have been worked out and it is performing even better than the DAC1, with 122dB SNR and 0.003% THD!

If you are interested in more details don't hesitate to call!

A/D

Im having an issue here with getting an A/D into our setup.

We already,now, have Benchmarks DAC-1. We use Mackie HR-824 and Yamaha NS-10m's powered by a hafler P1500 studio amp for monitoring. We have a Pro Tools LE setup. PT 7, on MAC OS X 10.4.4

the thing is whether 2 get the Benchmark ADC-1 or Apogee Rosetta 200?

Hearing sooo much about the 200.

But the DAC-1 is also so highly praised so... keep and buy ADC-1, or sell and get 200?

We do hip-hop music - some r&b.

Any experiences, suggestions and or recommendations would b much appreciated.

thankx
