The whole usb / out of box thing is cheesy sales pitch basically. Get

Thanks Loki. I appreciate
the help.
I actually have a M-Audio delta 1010LT. I found i could not play two streams
at the same time. So i hooked things up to the intelHD (onboard sound) and
was amazed at how much better it sounded. I was dumbstruck. A cloudiness was
gone and imaging was much more precise. I don't know what to say save that
my intelhd may have advanced past the Delta 1010LT. It's an old card and this
board is only year old.
