External Sound Card For Mini

[Hibbity]

I like these: http://www.soundblaster.com/products/audigy2NX/

But I know they arent made for macs. Will they run on macs, or is there a way to make them run on macs?

If not, does anyone know of an equivalent sound card that would work with my mini?

Thanks!

I have the iMic from Griffin Technology

there is a higher end card from this same company called PowerWave

The iMic sounded great for me and it was very cheap. Try these out if you are interested Hope this gives you some options.

Not sure about the Audigy, but I use a USB Creative Labs Sound Blaster MP3+ (AKA Sound Blaster Digital Music) on my TiBook and get noticeably better sound than Apple's onboard. Creative doesn't make Mac drivers for it, but Panther recognizes it automatically as a generic USB audio device and lets me use all of its inputs and outputs, including optical. I would think (and hope) that if one USB Soundblaster works, the other would work as well.

Here's a link to the MP3+ for anyone interested. I only bought it because the onboard on my PC wasn't working and I saw it on the shelf at Wal-Mart, remembered a positive Tom's Hardware review of it and grabbed it.
