Behringer UFO202 vs ART USB Phono Plus

[steve]

Are you telling that I cannot use the ART box also for listening the music from my PC ?

The ART manual is available here: http://artproaudio.com/discontinued_pro ... o_plus_v2/
It looks like you can use the device also for listening to music from your PC.

As I understand it, the Line Out on the Art Phono Plus is tied to the preamp input, so you can only listen to music from the PC on the headphones jack:

The current "Project Series" USB Phono Plus provides monitoring of the phono input, or the computer output or both via the headphone socket (switchable from the from panel with a separate monitor level control).
The RCA outputs are direct from the phono input which allows the unit to be used as an ordinary phono pre-amp without the computer connected but does not play back from the computer.
There are 2 optical digital connections, one for input into the computer and one for playback from the computer.
There is on S/PDIF co-ax input for input into the computer (when connected this overrides the optical input).
