The Audiotrack 5.1 EX looks very much as being the same as the Terratec Aureon. I had all 4 of them in the test, they all are supported very well. I guess I'm going with the Aureon, which is available for the lowest price here. It only does 48 kHz, but I don't care for other rates anyway when using Jack. The Terratec Phase 26 was my high end choice, but unfortunatly sucks more power, than my wimpy laptop can deliver over its USB connector.
