BRADMZ:...I am using the Sony tied to my ASUS system which I use my Alesis QX49, under Mixcraft 6pro, on other system I tied a antique NSX-TR99 sound system using the input/output element as it gives me 200 watts..The sony was a "Walmart" deciding factor, they wanted to give it away for 40 bucks..Who am I to argue with a walmart clerk, I am very pleased with output and LATENCY is less than split second, even the NSX is so dam close I cant tell difference, normally I pipe out to the mixed then to my LINE6 AMP and so on....YES, I tend to like it loud and I want to feel whatever my keybrds give, the wife isn't to keen and closes her door, wait till I get my other LINE 6 amp and half stack...I just got in a MEMORYMAN w/Hazaria and tied it to XW and you have no idea what the sound and strangest reply through my sony then the Line 6 I got...I have to master the art to BEAT/DRUM creating and then we move on...Thanks for commenting....
