Apparently it doesn't have a stable 8mhz clock, so Vat throws a fit every so often. I assume by 'looping' you mean when it plays the same segment for 5 seconds or so, gets restarted, then plays the audio that was missed over the current audio...that is what I'm getting with the SB. I'm also getting a bit of clicking and echoing. This happens almost immediately (1-3sec), so if it takes 10 minutes to start I'll buy that. > > That would be me. guspnp6 helped a _lot_, but I still get the > >looping after anywhere from 10min to 3 hours of continual use. > >Sound quality in vat is much much better though, and the looping has > >only happened a few times.
