I bought this interface some time ago out of curiosity, to complete my order which was less than 200 euros Thomann and, anyway, to compensate for the headphone output of a MacBook Pro a little weak.
Frankly, for 29 euros, this little box does its job very well. No compatibility problems with the FW800 jack on the MB Pro and I've even been plugged into the FW400 for an external hard drive, itself plugged into the computer's FW800 ...
I use it mainly to listen to my mixes through headphones and the large knob located above the case is very practical. In short, no regrets of my "investment".
UTILIZATION
Used on the Mac, no drivers are needed. No compatibility problems (Snow Leopard and Leopard). Not tested on Windows.
GETTING STARTED
Er, you connect the FireWire and basta. Simpler, you die! The manual is left in the packing box, like the installation CD for Windows.
OVERALL OPINION
One detail that I appreciate from my Audiofire2 is that the headphone jack uses a 6.35. No need to unplug the adapter 3.5/6.35, at the risk of losing it. In addition, the headphone volume is larger than the Echo. Obviously, the comparisons stop there because Audiofire is much more complete.
