We also had a problem with some of the 1010's. The audio sort of died
and the power led in the front panel of the rack mounted ad/da unit
would not light properly. Turned out a couple of electrolytic capacitors
in the internal power supply voltage doubler had died. We just changed
them...

and now m-audio. Here's to German audio
excellence! Those cold winters
drive you indoors to tinker with great machines and perfect them, I
guess. :)
I don't think M-Audio is a german company, though. And while M-Audio
makes some great products they also make some very understandard ones:
Most of their USB audio cards are very hard to get to work on Linux,
if at all, contrary to what M-Audio says on their website.<-
About M-Audio... we had been using a Delta 1010 in our studio, with some
heavy 96k usage under RH9 and basically a CCRMA setup. We had two of
these cards fry and become totally unusable - they had a terrible
high-pitched hum and pretty much no audio output.
