Hi all, just my report.
I ended up buying the USBPre2.
It works great under Linux, but since ALSA does not have USB2.0

support yet, I can only use 48k sample rate.
The sound that comes out of the device is really good quality.
Pros:

+ I can't even start comparing with the SaffirePro, it is REALLY MUCH BETTER,

  no doubt. One second of testing is enough.

+ I don't know what could be more important then support and sound

quality, but it has

  a good number of out/input options.
Cons:

  + ALSA could offer better support for USB2.0, even though it works

great under 48k.

  (but it's more an ALSA feature request)
  + it's a bit expensive. I don't know if the price is fair, but maybe

it is. Maybe they just

  use good quality parts and assembly in US instead of China. I don't know.
