So are there no longer latency issues with USB audio?

I tried more than an USB 1.1 soundcard on different operating systems,
and I think you can't go beyond 5.6ms, setting -p64 -n4 in jackd (this
is what I use with my UA-25). But even that is less latency that I used
to get with my old PCI soundcard (EgoSys Waveterminal 24/96) on WinXP.
This was an expensive professional soundcard when I bought it six years ago.
It's just my experience, but with gnu/Linux, jack and the alsa-usb-audio
driver you get far lower latencies than when using other operating systems.

I would
like to know your advice about external soundcard (with ieee
1394 port) recognize by linux.
ieee 1394 is not yet optimal supported on Linux, but see freebob.sf.net
for some details, including working devices.
My native soundcard is not full eqquiped in
input/output port that
why i'm searching for a soundcard with rca/xlr/jack connections.
I'm running under debian sarge with a 2.6.14 kernel.
If you're not bound to the firewire port and you're interested in a
painless solution, I can recommend USB 1.1 devices (AFAIK there are no
USB 2.0 devices known to work under Linux).
