Hate to see it go, but I put a cooler on my Radeon card and took up the adjacent slot. Sound card is left (was selling some speakers too):

Terrific card; very clean sound. No problems on my accelerated G4 on 10.4.6 -support for PC as well and comes with several software CDs for Windows.Details here: http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/Audiophile2496-main.html

I don't have the original box, but I do have the manuals and all CDs (get the latest drivers/updates from m-audio's site).

bump for anthing M-Audio. The best sound card period. Revolution 7.1 rocks my house everyday! Good luck with the sale!
 
Thanks; I may end up keeping it, but I'll see. I don't have a multi speaker setup, so going with a 5.1/7.1 card was a bit overkill and unecessary.

Agreed that m-audio rocks it.

Yeah, the breakout cable included

Bump for GI and also to remind myself to post a pic (again) of the card (mods: just give me a day or two).
 
This is an awesome card and a great price. If anyone is even remotely interested in doing any kind of home music production this is a great way to start.

Bump for the seller.

Thanks; I have a set of Edirol monitors that I may be selling as well to round out the package (may even throw in stands too).
 
Nice card, i was looking at these years ago when i built my first home theater pc. At the time it was one of the top 3 sound cards out for that application. I eventually bought a Philips PSC703 mainly due to price at the time, but for $75 this is a great card

Nice, that's good work. I need to redo mine with better wood (currently MDF) or at least veneer the bastards. I also need to make it a "quad" - it's currently a tripod and I nearly tipped the ******* thing over the other day. Making it wider will be good too.

What are the dimensions if you don't mind?

Each shelf is 36"x18" so they can fit two compenents side by side perfectly. Total dimensions are 36"Lx18"Wx36"H

Didnt have to cut it or anything it came that size, think i got it at Home Depot

I also covered the "all-thread" with aluminum tubing(polished with fine steel wool) in between the shelve bolts to make the look more appealing

I think the whole thing cost about $75 and took about 2-3 hours to make, but it was a few years ago.

It turned out pretty good in the end. I could have spent more time staining it, but I kinda like the antique/rustic look
