Echo Gina Soundcard

[markwhite]

I am thinking of buying an Echo Gina soundcard. I understand the older 20 bit card has been replaced by a newer 24 bit model. Whats the difference and is the older 20 bit model really not worth the buy. (bearing future use in mind). I wil be rtying to run windows XP. Any opions would be appreciated. Thanks Mark W.

I still have an old 20 bit Gina and it's a kick ass card. Very quiet, smooth sound, two analog in and eight analog outs and S/PDIF. I think they're still very usable. YMMV.
