Reply to Torq Connectiv as a soundcard

I can't find too much info on latency and sound quality factors. I'll be using it in Live BTW. Theres a full pack going brand spanking new close to me with Control Vinyl's & CDs + torq 2 for under $150 which seems pretty damn good.

Yes I know I could go for an Audio2 for about the same price, but the inputs on the connectiv would give me the option of an external effects loop at a later stage.

Thoughts ..... anyone?
