K that's what i was thinking both were. hmmmm so i guess the api a2d would be the one in all and a little extra in price but not by much and the rosetta 200 i would still need to get a set of 2 preamps. i really only need 2 preamps. i've seen other things in even cheaper price ranges but i'm the kind of the guy that would rather save up for something than buy down and can wait if my pockets are too thin. but my price range is 1,800 or less right now, less is always a perk :). any suggestions or benifits if i went with the rosetta would be appreciated.

right now the api a2d is looking like the winner. but i might get the rosetta if i can get a good price from a friend that has a brother that works for apogee. if that happens i'm sure to go with that becasue of a discounted price.
