I had not checked the latest in soundcards... so I did and found two very interesting ones
This one is inexpensive, but has a very unique feature -> one can connect two computers to it or an iPad and computer. And then route audio whichever way.
This would actually enable an easy means to use ARTA or Spotify one one PC and run the LspCAD crossover simulation on another. Source audio would remain digital and then analog would go to amps -> speakers in end. Would allow either measuring or listening to crossover before the build. As LspCAD only accepts same soundcard to be an input and output this scenario is usually not so easy to solve (unless one has RME soundcard for example that allows such routing internally)
The other one is this
Just amazing performance/functionality. With 768kHz sampling and that would also make an above average measurement instrument for all audio hobby projects. Not quite an AP analyzer level but very good indeed.
Price will be high though (1400EUR), but in this case one cas see where it goes to too.
