Thanks for the comments, Carey.
Again, I beg your indulgence, when using the RMD HDSP 9652 as Master and the ADA-82000 as slave combo, are we hearing the quality of both devices or of just one of the devices?
For all practical purposes, your only hearing the ADA-8200.
The ADA-8200 is the component that deals with amplifying the input signal and converting it to a digital form (ADAT).
If used as an output, it is also the component that is responsible for converting the digital signal (ADAT) back to an analog form.
The RME card is only the transport mechanism for moving the digital content into and out of the computer in a manner that can be processed by the software. (ADAT to computer data, and computer data to ADAT). It is strictly a transport layer and aside from very small artifacts that might occur due to jitter, it has no impact or affect on the sound quality going in or out of the system.
