Re: [ARSCLIST] a/d converters

[Erik Dix <edix@xxxxxx>]

Hi Mark!

We got a Lavry Engineering Blue LE 4496. Just a 2 channel a/d and no d/a was
less than $1500 a couple of years ago. They gave us an educational discount.
It doesn't do 192 khz though!
Lavry converters had been recommended on this list a while back.

Hope this helps!
