The Audiophile 24/96 was introduced in the early 2000s. When I was shopping for a sound card in the mid-2000s, the M-Audio cards in higher price ranges had RCA, digital and quarter inch jack output and inputs. After plowing thousands of dollars into Windows hardware and software and thousands of hours learning it all, I’m a Windows guy totally so I have no information on Mac compatibility.
Regarding which high-quality sound card to get today, Jonathan certainly had a few ideas several weeks ago. I used as my guide the sound card selected by Dancing Dots for their digital workstation. I figured they already analyzed the competing issues of accessibility, price and sound quality and chose a card that fit within this nexus. When I purchased the Audiophile 24/96, this was the card used in those workstations. Now Dancing Dots has moved onto another card I believe. I found this choice to be perfect for my needs and would use the same method again.
