Yeah, they don't make it easy. You want to forget almost every single feature they advertise, because for music you'll never use them.

The key points are that it has a 24b/96kHz USB DAC with decent specs and has real connectivity (RCA).

It won't be an Ayre or a PWD, but I'd be surprised if it didn't beat most laptops' onboard analog output.

I should say I don't have one, though I do have another Creative USB sound card/DAC that is nice.
